TCC privacy database

macOS records which applications have been granted access to the camera, microphone, screen recording, full disk and automation. On a Mac, a consent grant is the closest equivalent to a privilege escalation.

What members see here

  • Every path this artifact lives at, and which builds each applies to.
  • What it proves, and what it does not prove, which is the part that matters.
  • How to parse it, and the tooling that reads it correctly.
  • Hunting queries for Splunk, Sentinel and Elastic, with their false-positive notes.
