Policy Exemptions

An exemption lets you temporarily suppress a violation when a legitimate business need justifies the conflicting access. Exemptions are time-bound — Zluri automatically re-opens the violation when the duration expires.

Exemptions must be enabled per policy. Turn on Allow Exemptions in the Remediation step when creating or editing a policy, and set the maximum duration allowed. Only Owner, Admin, and IT Admin roles can grant exemptions.

Grant an exemption

Steps

  1. Open the violation detail.
  2. Select Exempt in the drawer header.
  3. Enter the exemption duration in days. The Create Exemption panel shows the max duration allowed by this policy inline (for example, “Max allowed in this policy: 30 days”).
  4. Enter a Reason. This field is required.
  5. Select Create Exemption. Zluri moves the violation to Exempted status.
