Issue/Introduction

Among other macOS permissions required by SEP/SES for Mac (Symantec Endpoint Protection / Endpoint Security), Full Disk Access is requested. After granting it, on macOS 14.x "Sonoma" you may see repeated request for Full Disk Access after OS is restarted.

Environment

SEP/SES for Mac

macOS 14.x "Sonoma"

Cause

This symptom is caused by an Apple issue and should be resolved in macOS version 14.2

Apple Developer forum thread: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/737824

Resolution

Macs using Mobile Device Administration (MDM) to apply pre-approval for macOS permissions should not be affected.

Otherwise, upgrade to macOS version 14.2 or newer.
