How does inheritance work when an Azure Policy is assigned at the subscription level?
a.Only newly created resources in one region comply
b.All resource groups and resources within that subscription inherit and must comply with the policy
c.The policy applies to other subscriptions too
d.Nothing inherits the policy
Explanation
When a policy is assigned at the subscription scope, it applies to all resource groups and resources beneath it through inheritance. Lower scopes automatically fall under the higher-level assignment. This makes it efficient to enforce standards broadly.
