[Internal]: Moving 'Endpoint Exceptions' to the Management/Assets section and make it per-policy #3883

Description

We're implementing multiple changes on Endpoint exceptions:

  • moving to a new location
    • the new location is the Security / Management (or Assets) section, next to other endpoint related artifacts like Trusted apps, Event filters etc.
    • similarly to other artifacts, they are available on the Policy details page as a tab
    • they are removed from the 'Shared exception lists' page,
    • they are read-only on the Endpoint Security rule page / Endpoint exception tab
  • per-policy assignment1: similarly to other artifacts, Endpoint exceptions can be assigned globally or per-policy.
    • this also means that Endpoint exceptions become space aware. (note, here we state it's global only)
  • import-export: as before, they can be imported/exported, but this is still under design

Planned release

We're developing this continuously behind a feature flag.

  • serverless: As soon as the feature is ready, we're planning to enable the feature flag and release it to serverless. Probably not much earlier as 9.3 feature freeze.
  • ESS: We're targeting 9.3 on ESS.

Footnotes

  1. A pre-requisite for this is that Endpoint exceptions are not duplicated to the Elastic Defend rule as rule exceptions. The documentation issue for that is already created by the detections team: https://github.com/elastic/docs-content/issues/2737
