A curated awesome-list of macOS and iOS security tools covering forensics, binary analysis, jailbreaks, and hardening. It is a reference catalog linking to external tools rather than a tool itself.

Use cases

  • find macOS forensic analysis tools
  • discover iOS security testing tools
  • look up iOS jailbreak resources
  • find macOS hardening and configuration tools
  • research Mach-O binary analysis utilities
  • find reverse engineering tools for Apple platforms

When to choose

  • you need a curated starting point for Apple-platform security tooling
  • you are researching macOS or iOS forensics or reverse engineering options
  • you want to discover community-vetted security tools for Apple ecosystems

When to avoid

  • you need an actual working tool rather than a list of links
  • you need security tooling for platforms other than macOS or iOS
  • you need guaranteed-maintained software, since linked tools vary in upkeep
