Explanation: In the AWS shared security model, a shared control, AWS provides the requirements for the infrastructure and the customer must provide their own control implementation within their use of AWS services.
Examples of shared controls include:
*Patch Management – AWS is responsible for patching and fixing flaws within the infrastructure, but customers are responsible for patching their guest OS and applications.
*Configuration Management – AWS maintains the configuration of its infrastructure devices, but a customer is responsible for configuring their own guest operating systems, databases, and applications.
*Awareness & Training – AWS trains AWS employees, but a customer must train their own employees.
Customer Specific – Controls which are solely the responsibility of the customer based on the application they are deploying within AWS services.
Examples of customer specific controls include:
*Service and Communications Protection or Zone Security which may require a customer to route or zone data within specific security environments.
