      SEM - SentinelOne | Authorizing MacOS Full Disk Access for SentinelOne

      If the SentinelOne icon shows "Need user attention", "user_action_needed_rs_fda", "user_action_needed_fda_helper", or "user_action_needed_fda_sentinelid"

      Important: This is done only once on an endpoint. If already done on the endpoint, do not repeat it when the Agent is updated. If you do not complete this prerequisite step, the macOS Agent will not have full visibility to all files from all users.

      **Occasionally after an OS update or upgrade you may be required to complete this step again**

      Authorize Full Disk Access to these processes:

      • sentineld

      • sentineld_helper

      • For Agents 21.5 and lower, Authorize Full Disk Access to sentinel_shell

      • For Agents 21.7 and later, Authorize Full Disk Access to sentineld_shell

      To Authorize Full Disk Access on a local computer:

      1. On the local computer, open System Preferences.

         
        MacSystemPrefs
