Question

Compatibility of FortiEDR with Kaspersky and Microsoft Defender

A customer currently has Kaspersky Antivirus installed on their endpoints and is considering deploying FortiEDR. They would like to know:

  1. Can FortiEDR coexist with Kaspersky on the same endpoints?
  2. Is there an Active-Passive kind of mechanism available that allows them to keep both Kaspersky AV and FortiEDR running without conflicts?
  3. Can they also have Microsoft Defender alongside Kaspersky and FortiEDR?

Any insights on best practices, potential conflicts, or required configurations would be appreciated.

 

Will there be any performance impact?
