Someone Is Selling Mac Malware on the Dark Web
Mac users beware: two pieces of dark web malware have been spotted on the dark web that target Macs. Their names? MacSpy and MacRansom. These two pieces of software were made by an unknown person who is marketing them as services. This means that the malware can be sold and then continuously supported and updated.
Security companies like Fortinet and AlienVault have analyzed samples of the malware, and report that they aren’t that sophisticated, although MacSpy is being marketed as “the most sophisticated Mac spyware ever.” Even so, it gives the impression that cybercriminals are eyeing Macs as viable targets more and more, instead of sticking to Windows.

The creator of MacSpy claims that it can capture screenshots every 30 seconds once it has been installed on your system. It can log all of your keystrokes, access your synced iPhone photos, record sounds even if your microphone isn’t turned on, and get your history and download data from Safari and Chrome.
