Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
The Regulatory compliance dashboard in Azure Security Center is not used for regional compliance.
Note: Instead Azure Resource Policy Definitions can be used which can be applied to a specific Resource Group with the App Service instances.
Note 2: In the Azure Security Center regulatory compliance blade, you can get an overview of key portions of your compliance posture with respect to a set of supported standards. Currently supported standards are Azure CIS, PCI DSS 3.2, ISO 27001, and SOC TSP.
