   A security architect is evaluating how to scale the organization's security defenses as the number of application teams grows rapidly. The architect wants to ensure that security controls are consistently applied without requiring a proportional increase in the security team's workload. Which combination of approaches best achieves this goal?

   • AOutsource security reviews to a third-party vendor for each new application.
   • BIncrease the security team's headcount to match the growth of application teams.
   • CCreate a detailed security policy document and require each team to interpret and implement it independently.
   • DDevelop reusable security patterns and architecture blueprints, and implement them as paved roads in the developer platform.
