C. Use an access policy group to configure application control settings. The Application Visibility and Control (AVC) engine in Cisco Web Security Appliance (WSA) allows you to control application specific activity by creating policies based on the type of traffic. To implement this, you must use an access policy group to configure the application control settings. An access policy group defines the set of security rules that the WSA applies to incoming web traffic. The AVC engine in the WSA allows you to categorize applications based on the type of traffic they generate, and then create policies that control how that traffic is handled. This can include allowing or blocking specific applications, controlling the bandwidth used by applications, and setting limits on the amount of data that can be downloaded.

C is correct. "The Application Visibility and Control (AVC) engine lets you create policies to control application activity on the network without having to fully understand the underlying technology of each application. You can configure application control settings in ACCESS POLICY GROUPS. You can block or allow applications individually or according to application type. You can also apply controls to particular application types.
