Some of the links shared barely mention resiliency. I was torn between D and A but struggling to find a clear reference on MS Learn.

Use geo-redundant storage (GRS): This ensures that backups are stored in multiple locations, protecting against regional disasters and increasing the resiliency against ransomware attacks, which may compromise local or single-location backup copies.

Using geo-redundant storage (GRS) ensures that your data is replicated in a secondary region far enough away from the primary location to avoid being affected by the same disaster. In the context of ransomware, this means that even if one location is compromised, the backups in another location remain unaffected, which greatly increases resiliency.

D is the answer. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-security-feature#authentication-to-perform-critical-operations As part of adding an extra layer of authentication for critical operations, you're prompted to enter a security PIN when you perform Stop Protection with Delete data and Change Passphrase operations.
