The Fortinet Credential Store is a launchAgent component embedded within FortiClient, Fortinet's enterprise VPN and endpoint security solution for macOS. This helper manages secure credential storage and authentication for VPN connections, integrating with macOS Keychain and supporting Touch ID authentication. FortiClient is used by corporate and institutional users to establish secure remote access to networks, and the credential store component ensures that login credentials are safely persisted across sessions. A native Apple Silicon (Universal) build of FortiClient has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionFortiClient has shipped a native Apple Silicon (Universal Binary) build as part of its standard macOS release since version 7.0 and later, so the credential store component will be automatically updated to run natively when you upgrade the parent FortiClient application. Download the latest macOS installer directly from Fortinet's official download page at forticlient.com or from your organization's IT portal (which may provide a pre-configured version). The installer will automatically deliver the native Universal Binary on M-series Macs—no special settings or beta channels are needed. Run the installer, complete the setup wizard, and grant the required permissions (Network Extensions and Full Disk Access as prompted by macOS). Once installed, the credential store helper will run natively and you will see improved performance and battery life compared to the Rosetta 2 build.
