Selected Answer: A
Option A (Use AWS CloudFormation Stack Sets to deploy stack instances that turn on AWS Config in all accounts and in all Regions) is the best option for achieving the goal in a highly efficient and scalable manner. AWS CloudFormation Stack Sets allow you to deploy CloudFormation stacks across multiple accounts and Regions in a single operation. By defining a stack that enables AWS Config and using Stack Sets, you can easily enable AWS Config in all accounts and Regions within the AWS organization. Option B (Use AWS CloudFormation Stack Sets to deploy stack policies that turn on AWS Config in all accounts and in all Regions) is not the correct option. Stack policies are used to control what actions can be performed on a CloudFormation stack, but they are not suitable for enabling AWS Config across multiple accounts and Regions.

A is the correct answer. Stack policies have nothing to do with it. C is clearly irrelevant. Finally, D won’t be as simple.

I think B is correct, but I'm not 100% sure about if it's policy based on instance based. Reference for CloudFormation: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/use-cloudformation-stacksets-to-provision-resources-across-multiple-aws-accounts-and-regions/
