A company stores critical data in Amazon DynamoDB tables in the company's AWS account.

Deletion protection is a feature of DynamoDB that prevents accidental deletion of tables. When deletion protection is enabled, you cannot delete a table unless you explicitly disable it first. This adds an extra layer of security and reduces the risk of data loss and operational disruption. Deletion protection is easy to enable and disable using the AWS Management Console, the AWSCLI, or the DynamoDB API. This solution has the least operational overhead, as you do not need to create, manage, or invoke any additional resources or services. References:
