Explanation

The Application Normative Framework (ANF) is a subset-or 'subnet'-of the broader Organizational Normative Framework (ONF). The ONF encompasses all security best practices and policies for the entire organization, while the ANF scopes that down to application-level security controls and practices. It is not a superset (A), not stand-alone (B), and not the complete ONF (C). The ANF draws from the ONF and applies only to the application layer, making it a subordinate component of the larger organizational framework.
