A user wants to control AWS services by using the AWS CLI.
What are the MINIMUM security credentials that the user needs to achieve this goal?
AWS account user name and password
Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
Access keys
Key pairs
Explanations:
The AWS account user name and password are used to sign in to the AWS Management Console but are not sufficient for accessing AWS services via the AWS CLI.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) enhances security but is not required for using the AWS CLI. It is optional and does not provide access on its own.
Access keys (Access Key ID and Secret Access Key) are the minimum credentials required to authenticate and access AWS services using the AWS CLI.
Key pairs are used for secure SSH access to EC2 instances, not for AWS CLI authentication or authorization.
As I understand it, the answer is:
Access keys
I organize that the answer is:
Access keys
