Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: D
OCI Cloud Guard -> Correct. Designed to automatically monitor, detect, and help remediate security and compliance issues across OCI resources, offering an effective solution for governance that includes cost optimization through resource efficiency and compliance automation. OCI Identity and Access Management (IAM) -> Incorrect. IAM is critical for security and access control but lacks features for automated governance beyond access management. OCI Budgets -> Incorrect. Budgets help manage costs by setting alerts but do not cover the broader governance needs such as compliance and policy enforcement. OCI Monitoring -> Incorrect. Monitoring is essential for operational oversight but does not encompass the full spectrum of governance needs like automated policy enforcement and compliance.
