About:
Pareto Security is a lightweight security checklist application designed to verify fundamental macOS security configurations. It automatically checks for common vulnerabilities like unlocked screens, missing FileVault encryption, and weak passwords. The tool provides actionable remediation steps to help users and administrators maintain a secure baseline configuration.
|
Key Features:
- Automated security baseline checks
- One-click remediation for identified issues
- Lightweight and privacy-focused (no data collection)
- Checks for FileVault, firewall, screen lock, and firmware passwords
|
Use Cases:
- Auditing personal Mac security posture
- Onboarding new employee devices to ensure security compliance
- Quickly verifying system security before sensitive operations
|
Alternatives:
-
KnockKnock
– Focuses on persistent malware and launch items detection rather than system configuration baselines
-
Santa
– A system integrity allowlist/denylist tool focused on executable blocking, whereas Pareto focuses on configuration hygiene
