Detects creation of a new com.<random-string>.plist file under ~/Library/LaunchAgents or /Library/LaunchAgents, followed by launchctl load/bootstrap referencing LaunchAgents, or an osascript-to-bash heredoc chain writing a plist into LaunchAgents, consistent with EtherHiding's macOS Launch Agent persistence mechanism.

Detects the macOS ClickFix dropper chain where curl fetches a disguised Mach-O payload (winapp.bin/ZoomSDK.bin) within a process chain that also shows an osascript decoy dialog or a self-deleting shell script, consistent with BlueNoroff's fake meeting-app installer delivery.

Detects scripted use of the macOS 'security find-generic-password' command targeting the Chrome Keychain item from a shell or unsigned temp-directory parent process, consistent with BlueNoroff's post-ClickFix Keychain master-key theft technique.

Detects suspicious execution patterns associated with the SleeperGem supply chain attack, where a compromised Gem install script (git_credential_manager-2.8.3/bin/install) spawns shell or PowerShell commands to trigger secondary malicious scripts like deploy.sh or redirects output to /dev/null.

Detects the use of the 'dscl' utility on macOS with the '-authonly' flag. This command is often used by adversaries or for unauthorized scripts to verify credentials against the local directory service without requiring a full login session, which is a common indicator of credential testing or brute-force attempts.

This rule detects processes command lines containing keywords associated with anti-debugging techniques, such as 'PT_DENY_ATTACH' (a common macOS ptrace flag used to prevent debugger attachment) or generic 'ptrace' and 'sysctl' system calls often leveraged by malware for process introspection or debugger evasion.

Detects execution of security utility commands on macOS intended to unlock a login keychain by providing a password via command line arguments. This behavior is indicative of an attempt to programmatically access stored credentials, which may be a precursor to credential theft.
