Latest Activity	The timestamp of the last tagged item in the incident timeline for the endpoint.
IP Address	List of associated IP addresses.
IPv6 Address	List of associated IPv6 addresses.
First Seen	Timestamp of first seen.
Last Seen	Timestamp of last seen.
Endpoint Isolated	Shows the status of endpoint isolation: Pending Isolation Cancellation Pending Isolation Isolated Not Isolated
Isolation Date	The isolation date of the endpoint.
