What happens to a deleted computer's protection status?

• A. Deleted Computers Lose Protection But Retain Software
• B. Endpoints Deleted During Timeframe
• C. Notifies for Each Malware Detected in Real-Time
• D. Alerts for Each Exploit Attempt Detected

Answer: (A)

When a computer is removed from WatchGuard Endpoint Security management, its protection status is no longer tracked by the central console. The endpoint’s client software remains installed on the machine, so local protection can still run, but it stops reporting to and being managed by the console, effectively making it unmanaged. To regain centralized protection, you would need to re-enroll or reassign it to a policy in the console. This aligns with how un-enrolling works: the device loses its protection status in the management system, while the software itself can remain on the device.

The other options describe real-time alerts or ambiguous timing about endpoints, which do not address what happens to a deleted device’s protection status in the management system.
