Answer options:

A.Amazon Inspector
B.Amazon EventBridge
C.Amazon Detective
D.Amazon Macie

Correct Answer: D
Amazon Macie is a fully managed AWS service that provides data security and privacy using machine learning algorithms, artificial intelligence and pattern matching. These mechanisms detect, discover, monitor, report and protect sensitive data stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). Macie can detect and alert sensitive data, such as bank credit card information.

Option A is INCORRECT because Amazon Inspector does not assess actual data stored in S3. It primarily assesses applications for exposure and vulnerability.
Option B is INCORRECT because Amazon EventBridge does not perform the function of detecting sensitive data.
Option C is INCORRECT because primarily relevant in establishing the root cause of security incidencies or suspicious activities within the AWS environment.
