We need sentinelone and forticlient to co-exist (we currently have sophos and sentinelone running at the same time), but forticlient would disable realtime scan when it detect other AV, how to keep it running?

Hello,

 

FCT will disable real-time scan when third party Antivirus is detected on the same machine, so it is expected behavior. FCT AV is not intended to co-exist with other AV.

Only 'scheduled scan' will work. Refer: https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.0.9/ems-administration-guide/447132/malware-protection
*Enable Scheduled Scans Even When a Third-Party AV Product Is Present
