A company has Amazon EC2 instances in multiple AWS Regions.

Creating aVPC endpointfor S3 and configuring abucket policyto allow access only from the endpoint ensures that only EC2 instances within the VPC can access the S3 bucket. This solutionimproves security by restricting access at the network level without the need for public internet access.

Option A (IAM policies): IAM policies alone cannot restrict access based on the network location.

Option B and D (Encryption): Encryption secures data at rest but does not restrict network access to the bucket.
