Enabling full disk access on macOS

When you install or upgrade Forcepoint DLP Endpoint on an endpoint machine running macOS 11.6 - 11.7.9 (Big Sur), macOS 12.0 - 12.7 (Monterey), macOS 13.0 - 13.6.2 (Ventura), and macOS 14.0 - 14.3.1 (Sonoma), you must enable full disk access (FDA) for the following processes:

  • Library/Application Support/Websense Endpoint/DLP/ESDaemonBundle.app
  • Library/Application Support/Websense Endpoint/DLP/Websense Endpoint Helper.app
  • Library/Application Support/Websense Endpoint/DLP/wsdlpd
  • Library/Application Support/Websense Endpoint/EPClassifier/EndPointClassifier

If you are installing Forcepoint DLP Endpoint manually on an endpoint machine, the installation prompts you to enable FDA. See the procedure in the Installation and Deployment Guide for Forcepoint F1E.

For more information about enabling FDA using Jamf, see the Deploying F1E DLP Endpoints on macOS Environments via Jamf Profile Knowledge Base article.
