Historical Scan Detection Rules

Some Nightfall integrations (e.g. Nightfall DLP for Google Drive) offer options for both historical and real-time scanning. Some organizations wish to minimize the amount of real-time alerts they receive on a daily basis, but still want to maintain a comprehensive data scanning and protection strategy.
One option is to create Detection Rules for real-time scans that are limited to the types of sensitive information that are most critical or highest risk to your organization. Then, leverage broader historical scans to capture less critical risks on a routine cadence, when your team can plan resourcing in advance (e.g. monthly or quarterly).
