Why each option

Group Policy is the correct enterprise method to enforce a mandatory homepage setting across all workstations centrally and persistently.

AConfigure a logon script to set the homepage at logon.

Logon scripts can set the homepage but do not prevent users from changing it after logon, making enforcement unreliable.

BSet the default homepage to the corporate website in Group Policy.Correct

Group Policy Objects (GPOs) allow administrators to enforce browser homepage settings across all domain-joined workstations from a central location. The setting is applied at logon or refresh and cannot be overridden by standard users. This ensures consistent, policy-compliant enforcement without manual intervention on each machine.

CManually configure the homepage on all workstations and setup trace logs to ensure

Manual configuration does not scale across an organization and trace logs monitor activity after the fact rather than enforcing the policy.

DSet the default homepage to the corporate website on the base computer image.

A base image sets the homepage at deployment time but does not prevent users from changing it afterward, providing no ongoing enforcement.
