Why each option

This question asks to identify two Microsoft technologies for deploying hotfixes or updates across a network after a virus outbreak.

AWSUSCorrect

WSUS (Windows Server Update Services) is a Microsoft server role that enables administrators to centrally manage and distribute updates, hotfixes, and patches to computers within an organization's network.

BTerminal services

Terminal services (now Remote Desktop Services) allows remote access to applications or desktops but is not a primary mechanism for deploying hotfixes to multiple machines.

CRemote management cards

Remote management cards provide out-of-band management of server hardware but are not used for deploying operating system hotfixes to multiple systems.

DGroup policyCorrect

Group Policy can be utilized to deploy software packages, including hotfixes provided in MSI format, or to configure client computers to receive updates from a WSUS server, automating the patching process.

ESNMP

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used for monitoring and managing network devices, not for deploying software updates or hotfixes.
