"Endpoint and Cloud Security" integration for Elastic Agent mentions in the [documentation](https://docs.elastic.co/en/integrations/endpoint) (for Elastic 8.4.1) that

```auto
...The log type of documents are stored in the logs-endpoint.* indices. ...

```

However this is not entirely true. The following data streams were created when using "Endpoint and Cloud Security" integration:

- .logs-endpoint.action.responses
- .logs-endpoint.actions
- logs-elastic\_agent.endpoint\_security
- logs-endpoint.events.file
- logs-endpoint.events.network
- logs-endpoint.events.process

Which results in:

1. Incosistency across the data stream naming pattern.
2. Inconsitency with the integration documentation.
3. Problems when ingesting by logstash all events from Elastic Agent and following the ELastic's [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/ls-security.html#ls-http-auth-basic) for using a dedicated `logstash_writer` role.

Hello,

`.logs-endpoint` are supposed to be hidden streams (now I don't remember what was the reason behind). Apart from that, all is consitent, Elastic Endpoint Security streams are `logs-endpoint`, the other one `logs-elastic_agent` belongs to Elastic Agent SIEM
