MDM (option D) delivers profiles, but the profiles define the settings. The Apple Platform Deployment Guide details Screen Time configuration via profiles.

Configuration profiles allow IT administrators to manage security settings on a device, such as enforcing encryption, restricting untrusted certificates, or enabling firewalls (on macOS). These profiles are deployed via MDM or manually, ensuring compliance with security policies. Find My (option B) and iCloud (option C) are user-focused features unrelated to security management. MDM (option D) delivers profiles, but the profiles define the settings. The Apple Platform Deployment Guide details security configuration via profiles.

MDM (option D) is the system that delivers profiles, but the profiles themselves contain the VPN settings. The Apple Platform Deployment Guide details VPN configuration via profiles.
