Explanation

User policy (D) is correct because it is specifically designed to govern the behavior and responsibilities of end users - defining what they are permitted and expected to do when using an organization's network resources, devices, and computer equipment.

A (General policy) is too broad; it refers to high-level organizational governance, not user-specific behavior rules.
B (Remote access policy) is narrowly scoped to rules around accessing the network from outside the organization, not general equipment use.
C (IT policy) typically governs the IT department's own operations and procedures, not the behavior of general end users.

Memory tip: Think "User policy = User behavior." The word user directly maps to the people the policy targets - if the question asks about what users can and should do, the answer will always involve the User policy.
