A company is building a new pipeline by using AWS CodePipeline and AWS CodeBuild in a build account.The pipeline consists of two stages.The first stage is a CodeBuild job to build and package an AWS Lambda function.The second stage consists of deployment actions that operate on two different AWS accounts: a development environment account and a production environment account.The deployment stages use the AWS CloudFormation action that CodePipeline invokes to deploy the infrastructure that the Lambda function requires.A DevOps engineer creates the CodePipeline pipeline and configures the pipeline to encrypt build artifacts by using the AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) AWS managed key for Amazon S3 (the aws/s3 key).The artifacts are stored in an S3 bucket.When the pipeline runs, the CloudFormation actions fail with an access denied error.

Which combination of actions must the DevOps engineer perform to resolve this error?

(Choose two.)

Create an S3 bucket in each AWS account for the artifacts. Allow the pipeline to write to the S3 buckets. Create a CodePipeline S3 action to copy the artifacts to the S3 bucket in each AWS account. Update the CloudFormation actions to reference the artifacts S3 bucket in the production account.

Create a customer managed KMS key. Configure the KMS key policy to allow the IAM roles used by the CloudFormation action to perform decrypt operations. Modify the pipeline to use the customer managed KMS key to encrypt artifacts.

Create an AWS managed KMS key. Configure the KMS key policy to allow the development account and the production account to perform decrypt operations. Modify the pipeline to use the KMS key to encrypt artifacts.

In the development account and in the production account, create an IAM role for CodePipeline. Configure the roles with permissions to perform CloudFormation operations and with permissions to retrieve and decrypt objects from the artifacts S3 bucket. In the CodePipeline account, configure the CodePipeline CloudFormation action to use the roles.

In the development account and in the production account, create an IAM role for CodePipeline. Configure the roles with permissions to perform CloudFormation operations and with permissions to retrieve and decrypt objects from the artifacts S3 bucket. In the CodePipeline account, modify the artifacts S3 bucket policy to allow the roles access. Configure the CodePipeline CloudFormation action to use the roles.

    I reckon the answer is:
    Create a customer managed KMS key. Configure the KMS key policy to allow the IAM roles used by the CloudFormation action to perform decrypt operations. Modify the pipeline to use the customer managed KMS key to encrypt artifacts.
