Detecting Threats on macOS

Catch what others miss. Behavioral detection built on macOS-specific telemetry — clipboard monitoring, TCC tracking, UnifiedLog analysis — combined with DoubleYou's signature-based antimalware for true defense in depth.

Key Capabilities

What Sets Us Apart

Research-Driven Telemetry

Go beyond standard OS telemetry. Phorion collects UnifiedLog entries, TCC access events, and clipboard paste activity — the sources that reveal ClickFix attacks, keylogger installations, and credential theft before damage is done.

Living Ruleset

Ship with a comprehensive detection library built from years of macOS threat research. New rules land continuously as our team tracks emerging threats, and you can author custom detections tailored to your environment.

Antimalware with DoubleYou

Integrated malware detection and prevention powered by DoubleYou, from macOS security pioneers Patrick Wardle and Mikhail Sosonkin. Signature-based protection that perfectly complements Phorion's behavioral detection for defense in depth.

Feature List

...and everything else

Detection Library

Hundreds of detections ready out of the box. Built from years of offensive and defensive macOS experience, continuously updated as new threats emerge.

Custom Detection Authoring

Write your own detection rules. Phorion's rule engine lets your team build detections tailored to your environment, your crown jewels, and your threat model.

Rule Tuning

Eliminate noise without losing coverage. Tune rule thresholds, add allowlists, and adjust severity — all through an intuitive detection development portal.

Continuous Threat Hunting

Our researchers hunt across anonymized customer telemetry for emerging threats. When we find new TTPs, detections ship to all customers automatically.

Endpoint Security Framework

Real-time visibility via Apple's ESF. Process execution, file operations, and network events stream directly into Phorion's detection engine as they happen.

File Read Monitoring

Watch your crown jewels. Monitor access to sensitive files — credentials, tokens, configuration — and alert the moment an unauthorized process reads them.

Network Telemetry

Track outbound connections at the process level. Spot C2 callbacks, data exfiltration, and suspicious network behavior as part of the full kill chain.

UnifiedLog Collection

Tap into macOS's richest data source. The UnifiedLog captures system events that ESF misses — invaluable for detecting persistence and privilege escalation.

TCC Access Monitoring

See when apps actually use sensitive permissions, not just when they request them. Detect the moment a process accesses the camera, microphone, or screen — catching spyware and keyloggers in the act.

Secret Scrubbing

Protect sensitive data in transit. Phorion strips secrets from telemetry before it leaves the endpoint — and you can add custom patterns for your own credentials.

Hosted SIEM

Investigate raw telemetry without leaving Phorion. The built-in SIEM lets you query events, develop detections, and dig into incidents from a single interface.

DoubleYou Antimalware

Signature-based protection from macOS security pioneers Patrick Wardle and Mikhail Sosonkin. Best-in-class malware blocking that complements behavioral detection.

ClickFix Detection

Stop social engineering attacks that trick users into pasting malicious commands. Phorion monitors clipboard activity and alerts before credentials are stolen.
