Keychain Pop-up Prompts
When the GlobalProtect App is upgraded on macOS endpoints

can access the encryption key and saved user credentials from the

Allow so that the Keychain pop-up prompts do not appear
again.
The Keychain pop-up prompts appear only when upgrading
from release 5.0.x to release 5.1.x. When the GlobalProtect app

Because of entitlements support changes, the bundle identifier,

is com.paloaltonetworks.GlobalProtect.client,
and has changed from com.paloaltonetworks.GlobalProtect in 5.0.x
releases. See Entitlements for details
