[BUG] Incorrect Information in Documentation #2332

@sukhwindersingh-qasource

Description

Documentation links

In the Endpoints tab of the documentation:
🔗 https://www.elastic.co/docs/solutions/security/manage-elastic-defend/endpoints

Description

The following statement is incorrect in the documentation:

“Elastic Agent statuses in Fleet correspond to the agent statuses in the Elastic Security app.”

This is misleading because the status mapping between Fleet and the Security app is not always one-to-one.

Example:
When an agent is unenrolled in Fleet, it does not show as "unenrolling" or "unenrolled" in the Elastic Security app. Instead, it shows as offline in the Security app

Suggestion:
The documentation should clarify that not all agent statuses in Fleet directly reflect in the Security app. Additional statuses such as Orphaned, Inactive, and Uninstalled are also missing from the docs.
