Explanation
Secure Web Proxy (SWP) is the GCP service designed specifically for egress web traffic filtering by full URL including hostnames and URL paths - capabilities that Cloud NAT and VPC firewall FQDN objects do not provide (FQDN objects match hostnames only, not paths). Because SWP is a regional service, it must be deployed in each region where the workloads reside. SWP policies can target instances using secure tags, matching the requirement. Option C suggests a single instance with global access enabled, but SWP does not support a single global instance serving multiple regions. Option D is the architecturally correct, regionally distributed approach.
