DESCRIPTION:For years\, a persistent myth suggested that macOS was inherent
 ly immune to malware. Today\, threat actors are aggressively shattering th
 at illusion by deploying sophisticated initial access chains tailored to b
 ypass macOS defenses. This talk provides a deep-dive analysis of how moder
 n adversaries gain their first foothold on Apple hardware.\n\nWe will diss
 ect the entire initial access pipeline\, starting with Infection Vectors l
 ike deceptive Google Ads\, malicious ClickFix campaigns\, and sophisticate
 d malvertising that trick users into lowering their guard. From there\, we
  explore the Execution Phase\, analyzing how attackers weaponize scripting
  languages\, including traditional Bash and Python\, as well as native App
 leScript\, Compiled AppleScript\, Perl\, and JavaScript for Automation (JX
 A). Finally\, we will examine the delivery mechanisms\, contrasting the ab
 use of native Binaries (Mach-O\, Platypus-packaged apps\, and Electron fra
 meworks) with the trojanization of Storage and Installer Formats (DMGs and
  PKGs).\n\nAttendees will walk away with a technical understanding of cont
 emporary macOS tradecraft\, real-world attacker methodologies\, and the in
 sights needed to hunt for and defend against modern Mac-focused threats.
