The given answer is probably the closest. In real life I'd add a regulatory compliance standard in Defender for Cloud. This question might be seen written another way where that is the answer. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/update-regulatory-compliance-packages#what-regulatory-compliance-standards-are-available-in-defender-for-cloud

A - I agree that I'd probably use Defender for Cloud as the UI is much better, however this service simply doesn't do the work, rather it invokes the Azure Policy initiative which is then reported back to Defender for Cloud. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/policy-reference

You need to do it via DfC, using policy blade to check policies assigned from DfC is not a good experience as policies are applied many times with different parameters. Plus the NIST controls will only be mapped under DfC.

One keyword in the question is "review". Answer A would "assign" the policy initiative - not "review". Given that the company has Defender for Cloud, Answer C would be my choice.

I thought the same, but it says for "the current subscription". Assigning an initiative directly to the mentioned subscription might be easier if there are several.
