-Follow the corresponding instructions depending on your preferred deployment method.
+When you offboard a device from Defender for Endpoint, no new detections, vulnerability, or security data are sent to the Microsoft Defender portal. Seven days after offboarding a device, its status changes to [inactive](/defender-endpoint/fix-unhealthy-sensors#inactive-devices). Devices that weren't active within the past 30 days are not factored into your organization's [exposure score](/defender-vulnerability-management/tvm-exposure-score).
 
-The status of a device switches to [Inactive](fix-unhealthy-sensors.md#inactive-devices) seven (7) days after offboarding.
+Past data, such as alerts, vulnerablities, and the device timeline, for an offboarded device is displayed in the Microsoft Defender portal until the [configured retention period](/defender-endpoint/data-storage-privacy#how-long-will-microsoft-store-my-data-what-is-microsofts-data-retention-policy) expires. You also see the device profile (without data) in the device inventory for up to 180 days. To view data for active devices only, you can use filters, such as [sensor health state](/defender-endpoint/machines-view-overview#use-filters-to-customize-the-device-inventory-views), [device tags](/defender-endpoint/machine-tags), or [device groups](/defender-endpoint/machine-groups).
