[QUOTE="MacDefender, post: 844661, member: 83059"] Agreed! The latest macOS basically has this behavior built in by default. Anything not properly signed/endorsed by Apple will trigger a prompt if they try to touch certain things like documents. If they do it from an interactive session their app gets hung until the user makes a decision. If they do it from a background daemon it just gets rejected. The criticism is that it results in a lot of potentially annoying prompts, but on the bright side, without an element of phishing it essentially protects against any sort of ransomware or espionageware [/QUOTE]
