macOS EDR Telemetry: A Structured Framework for Evaluating Endpoint Visibility. EDR Telemetry Project - Exploring telemetry capabilities of EDR solutions

📢🍏 macOS is now part of the EDR Telemetry Project. After three months of focused work, we’re excited to share a new framework and generator for endpoint visibility on macOS!

Huge thank you to everyone who contributed and helped shape this release. Looking forward to what comes next.

It’s been quiet on the EDR Telemetry side lately while working on something big!

EDR telemetry's goal was always to set the standard for telemetry visibility, and this is what we're planning to do with tomorrow's release...

Keep an eye out for tomorrow's announcement!

Sometimes the call comes a little too late and you gotta do what you gotta do 😂

• Chrome/Edge running on servers where they shouldn't be
• Browser profile directory access by non-browser processes
• Outbound HTTPS to api.telegram.org from unexpected executables
• Startup persistence under AppData or ProgramData without operational justification

Exfiltration via Telegram bot API where PhantomStealer packages victim data as JSON and POSTs directly:

• Browser credentials, cookies, saved passwords
• System metadata (OS, username, antivirus status)
• Network reconnaissance (gateway/internal/external IPs)

Phantom Stealer has been prominent across phishing campaigns over the past two weeks. Operationally interesting to me is that it’s not just an infostealer. It also acts as an initial access broker, dropping GuLoader for follow-on activity, and I’ve seen it deploy crypto miners as well.

Why Your EDR Needs a Partner: The Case for Application Control How threat intelligence-aware application control fills the gaps that EDR leaves open

At EDR Telemetry project, we spend a lot of time measuring what EDRs can see. This article is about what they still cannot safely stop.

From LOLBAS to vulnerable drivers to unauthorized RMMs, I walk through the real-world gaps we keep seeing in telemetry and why application control is...

Since launching in November, the platform has already helped hundreds of consultants and enterprises navigate the complexity of EDR selection.

This release pushes things forward with a cleaner comparison UX, deeper evaluation context using MITRE ATT&CK evaluation data, and a new vendor added:

Claude set a strong bar for structured, workflow-driven AI usage, and it’s no surprise we’re now seeing similar ideas across other platforms like OpenAI.

I’ve built DFIR and quick triage workflows that save me hours every time! The time savings really add up, and it’s completely changed how I work.

Pretty 😍

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope everyone’s enjoying some downtime 🎄
