Move 'Network File Activity' and 'Email' classes to 'Application' category

[mikeradka]

Network File Activity and Email Activity are much more based on the Application layer. The focal point of those logs are not the network transaction, but what the overarching applications are actually doing.

We are proposing to move these classes under the 'Application' category, which they are more appropriately suited.

Note: Doing so in a non-breaking manner will require class deprecation.

I don't recall us ever deprecating a class before. I am testing from my end, but it is possible that we might need to build a way to introduce class deprecation.

UPDATE: this class was deprecated: https://schema.ocsf.io/1.1.0-dev/classes/security_finding?extensions=

We should look into a way to denote deprecation on the class view page of the web ui (superscript, maybe?)

Per today's network call, we discussed the name of Network File Activity under Application

We are most likely landing on File Sync & Share or File Hosting

Some other options are:

• Web File Services
• File Hosting Services
• File Hosting Activity
• Web File Activity

Some other options are:

• Web File Services
• File Hosting Services
• File Hosting Activity
• Web File Activity

I would stray from Web File Activity, because this makes me think too much about the HTTP PUT/DELETE requests. Web File Services I think would also cause another circular discussion about "what is a web resource?", so I would opt against that to avoid the philosophical rabbit-hole.

Let's keep File Sync & Share and File Hosting Activity in the running for now.

Completed via #917

[mikeradka]

Network File Activity has been deprecated and replaced with Application -> File Hosting Activity.
Next will be a PR for the Email classes to move over to Application.

[mikeradka]

PR is in to move the Email File/URL classes. Once this is merged this Issue can be closed.

[mikeradka]

In 1.1 preparation, we determined that Email File and URL classes need some work, and that should precede moving them to the Application category. Thus, those two classes will not be moved for the 1.1 release.

Created new issue #927 to track the 1.2 efforts.
