Explanation
In FortiSIEM, when an agent is uninstalled from a Windows device, the device remains in the CMDB (Configuration Management Database) until it is manually removed. Uninstalling the agent does not automatically remove the device from the CMDB. CMDB maintains discovered devices even if they no longer report logs, ensuring historical tracking. Administrators must manually delete the device from the CMDB > Devices section.
