A new version of the Banshee malware, which steals browser credentials, cryptocurrency wallets, and other sensitive data, has been detected on macOS systems. Researchers suggest that the malware uses string encryption from Apple’s XProtect, making it difficult for antivirus systems to detect.

Cybersecurity experts emphasize the need for endpoint security solutions and regular software updates.
