Why each option

By default, Cortex XDR sets an expiration limit of 30 days for agent upgradation and agent uninstall tasks.

A90 days

90 days is not the default expiration limit for agent upgrade and uninstall tasks in Cortex XDR.

B60 days

60 days is not the default expiration limit for agent upgrade and uninstall tasks in Cortex XDR.

C40 days

40 days is not the default expiration limit for agent upgrade and uninstall tasks in Cortex XDR.

D30 daysCorrect

Cortex XDR, by default, imposes a 30-day expiration period for agent upgrade and uninstall operations. If the endpoint agent does not receive and execute the scheduled task within this timeframe, the task will expire, preventing its execution.
