I find myself wondering about A as an answer.????
I think is due to the question saying “in vCenter server”. I agree A is enabling security, but it is not in vCenter server.
A is not an answer IMO:
virtual machines are there to provide application level (von vmware) functionality which must be managed. If you have already restricted console access (answer A which is definitivelly correct), only the 3rd party remote (RDP, SSH whatever)management capabilities remain.
