    Answer options:

    B.

    AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store

    C.

    AWS KMS

    D.

    AWS Lambda

    E.

    How to approach this question

    Identify the service that supports automatic rotation (Secrets Manager) and the compute service it uses to execute the rotation (Lambda).

    Full Answer

    AWS Secrets Manager helps you protect secrets needed to access your applications, services, and IT resources. It natively supports automatic rotation of credentials for RDS. To perform the rotation, Secrets Manager invokes an AWS Lambda function.

    Common mistakes

    Choosing Parameter Store, which does not support automatic rotation natively.
