Diving Deeper into Advanced macOS Detection and Hunting Techniques

September’s Releases

Ability to Rename Detection and Response Rules

In this release, we added the ability to rename and modify metadata (expiration date, tags, and comment field) in detection and response rules. This makes it easier for users to manage their hive records at scale and offers a better user experience.

Added Analytics to False Positive Rules

We are continuing to add metrics to make it easy for you to see the performance of different components of your security infrastructure.

In this release, we are exposing entity metrics for false positive (FP) rules. On every false positive rule, users can now see how many times an FP rule has prevented detections from triggering. This is in addition to analytics that already exist on sensors, outputs, and d&r rules. Data is updated every ~15 minutes and stored for three months.

Email Sensor

You can now ingest raw emails directly into LimaCharlie using our new Email sensor. To get started, navigate to the sensors list > add new sensor > email and complete the required steps.

EDR v4.31.0

  • macOS bug fixes (note that as far as we found out from our testing, we are unaffected by the macOS Sequoia issues other security vendors are having)

  • Fixing some cases that could lead to temporary files being left behind on disk over time.
