Security group Operates at the instance level, while Network ACL Operates at the subnet level.

Thanks. I chose Network ACL and I know why that isn't the right answer after reading what you said.

Selected Answer: B
Security groups in AWS act as an instance-level firewall to control inbound and outbound access to Amazon EC2 instances. They operate at the instance level and are associated with a specific instance or group of instances. Security groups allow you to define rules that specify the allowed inbound and outbound traffic based on protocols, ports, and IP addresses. They provide a stateful firewall, meaning that they track the state of a connection and automatically allow the return traffic for established connections.

I understand why it's B: Security Group due to the keyword "...as an instance level firewall" but isn't the question here then a bit unclear since it also says "...to control inbound and outbound access" since the Security Group doesn't control the outbound?'
