Full Answer

B.Resource Locks✓ Correct

Resource Locks

Resource Locks prevent accidental deletion or modification of Azure resources. A 'CanNotDelete' lock means authorized users can still read and modify a resource, but they can't delete it. Locks override RBAC permissions.

Common mistakes

Assuming RBAC is enough. If an admin has Owner rights, they can delete the resource unless a lock is applied.
