Question
A company's data scientists want to create artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) training models by using Amazon SageMaker. The training models will use large datasets in an Amazon S3 bucket. The datasets contain sensitive information. On average, the data scientists need 30 days to train models. The S3 bucket has been secured appropriately. The company's data retention policy states that all data that is older than 45 days must be removed from the S3 bucket. Which action should a security engineer take to enforce this data retention policy?
Options
- AConfigure an S3 Lifecycle rule on the S3 bucket to delete objects after 45 days.
- BCreate an AWS Lambda function to check the last-modified date of the S3 objects and delete
- CCreate an AWS Lambda function to check the last-modified date of the S3 objects and delete
- DConfigure S3 Intelligent-Tiering on the S3 bucket to automatically transition objects to another

Explanation
Amazon S3 Lifecycle rules provide a native, fully managed mechanism to automatically transition or delete objects based on their age. According to the AWS Certified Security - Specialty Official Study Guide, S3 Lifecycle policies are the recommended and most secure method for enforcing data retention requirements because they operate automatically, consistently, and without custom By configuring a lifecycle rule to delete objects after 45 days, the company ensures that sensitive datasets are retained long enough to support the 30-day model training process while remaining compliant with the data retention policy. Lifecycle rules are enforced by Amazon S3 itself and apply uniformly to all objects in the bucket or to objects that match specific prefixes or tags.
