A. Its not possible to apply a group policy to a security group however what you can do is to filter a group policy by changing the permissions on the Group Policy so that only certain users/groups have read and apply privileges.
- Start the Active Directory Users and Computers MMC snap-in (Start - Programs - Administrative Tools - Active Directory Users and Computers)
- Right click on the container (OU or domain) that has the Group Policy Object whose permissions you wish to change and select Properties
- Select the 'Group Policy' tab
- Select the GPO from the list and click Properties
- Select the Security tab
- Modify the permissions so that only the required users have the read and
apply privileges and Administrators who need to modify the GPO have read and
write

- Click Close the containers properties
Now only the selected users will run the GPO
