- Launch Agent 1 TTPs
Adversaries may create or modify launch agents to repeatedly execute malicious payloads as part of persistence.
- Launch Daemon 1 TTPs
Adversaries may create or modify Launch Daemons to execute malicious payloads as part of persistence. Launch Daemons are plist files used to interact with Launchd, the service management framework used by macOS.
- AppleScript 1 TTPs 12 IoCs
AppleScript is a macOS scripting language designed to control applications and parts of the OS via inter-application messages called AppleEvents.
