Closed council session recordings must remain retained for 7 years and then be deleted, with strong protection against early tampering where policy requires immutability. Which Amazon S3–centric design best meets retention and protection needs?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Seven years means a calendar with teeth: Lifecycle keeps the recordings for the full term then expires them, and Object Lock (when policy demands) stops early edits—like a sealed minutes vault, not a laptop recycle bin.
Full Explanation
Retention and protection for regulated recordings combine S3 Lifecycle rules that retain then expire objects after the mandated period with Object Lock/compliance controls when immutability is required, plus governed backups where appropriate. Ad-hoc laptop storage, public overwrites, or premature deletion fail records-management and integrity requirements.
