Privacy begins with the design

Your Mac can do
the analysis.

Your files and everyday activity can reveal a lot about your life. We’re developing PhantomProtect around local threat checks so that the analysis happens on the device you use.

Our direction brings together local rules, downloaded threat intelligence and AI that runs on your Mac. That keeps privacy part of the protection itself as threats and the tools used to create them evolve.

Online services still have a role, including updates and account access. We’ll explain those connections alongside the local analysis, so you can understand what the app shares.

Understand what is happening

Protection should
make sense to you.

A warning is more useful when you understand what triggered it. PhantomProtect is being designed to put suspicious activity in context, with clear information about what was detected and what you can do next.

PhantomWatch will show your Mac’s connections and provide manual firewall controls, and is planned for PhantomProtect and the full PhantomSecure Suite. PhantomGuardian is being developed to explain security events using AI on your device. Both are part of the planned PhantomProtect experience.
