Deceptive macOS Launch Agents

Goal: To identify attackers attempting to establish persistence by creating or modifying launch agents.

Approach: Monitoring access to the deceptive launch agents and analyzing attacker behavior. This element involves creating deceptive launch agents that mimic legitimate ones but contain misleading or deceptive information or trigger alerts.

Attackers who attempt to interact with or modify the deceptive launch agents will be identified and their actions will be logged. This information can be used to improve defenses and make it more difficult for attackers to maintain persistence on the system.
