Can Scanning Jobs Overlap?

Yes. You can have two overlapping scanning jobs. That is, both are configured to scan a common folder. This allows you apply different policies to same folder. For example, one scanning job may apply DoD deletions to files matching a particular classification, while another job saves copies of specific files to a new location.
