Explanation

Webroot and Sophos (option B) are designed to support parallel scanning of a single transaction, meaning both engines can simultaneously inspect the same traffic or file without conflicting with each other - a key feature in multi-engine security architectures.

Option A (Webroot, Sophos, and McAfee) is wrong because McAfee does not support parallel scanning in this context; adding it would not enable simultaneous scanning alongside the others in the same transaction flow. Option C (Sophos and McAfee) is wrong because McAfee lacks the parallel-scan compatibility that Webroot has with Sophos. Option D (None of the above) is wrong because a valid parallel-scanning combination does exist.

Memory tip: Think "Webroot + Sophos = Works Simultaneously" - the two products that start with letters early in the alphabet (W, S) are the ones that work side by side, while McAfee sits this one out.
