Hi. Annoying new JAMFer here.



Trying to configure FDA for Crowdstrike falcon sensor by using the Privacy Preferences Policy Control.



I've uploaded screenshot of what I have.



Flummoxed because so many folks say deployment is a breeze but I can't deploy company wide until I figure this out. Package installation and registration seems to work fine so I think this is the missing piece.



Any advice welcome.




I'm not sure that you have the correct identifier there. Ive got...


This is ours, Was having issues on catalina with using the bundleid and switched to Path, was also having issues without falconctl added with the same entitlement.




Also, you won't see the approval reflected in System Preferences. Check it with:



plutil -p /Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/MDMOverrides.plist

@patgmac (or anyone else), have you seen any nice gui apps built around plutil anywhere? If I can chisel out some time, I'd like to build something that makes the output easier to read at a glance. It may be a long time until I get to it though.


That plutil command doesn't seem to work on Catalina, I get an Operation Not Permitted error even when running as root.


the plutil -p works for me just fine and I have several MDM Overrides in my configs. @patgmac is 100% correct, you cannot trust the GUI as Apple has not properly implemented that yet. The only way to be certain is to check the overrides file


Ah, Figured out my issue, I didn't have iTerm set to have Full Disk Access.


@patgmac So then after running the plutil command this output is saying that falcond has Full Disk Access?
