Cross-platform privacy-hardening program. Two-layer product: - SilverLABS Application Stack (cross-platform spine) - Platform Hardening Profiles (per-OS, tier-honest) Platforms: Linux (Debian/Kicksecure), Android (Pixel/Samsung/Moto/generic), Windows (LTSC IoT), macOS (profile), iOS (MDM profile). Each flavour has both a preflashed hardware SKU path and a self-apply "harden your existing device" path. Includes umbrella docs (README + threat-model, design-principles, platform-matrix, roadmap, trust-model), per-platform and per-stack- component README stubs, .gitignore, LICENSE. Linux v1 ships first; Stack v1 = Browser + VPN + Sync. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# SilverMetal macOS
|
|
|
|
**Status**: Phase 4 (planning, post-Windows v1)
|
|
|
|
Tier C-D — signed configuration profile + setup script + Stack ports. We cannot modify macOS; we configure everything Apple exposes.
|
|
|
|
## Scope (v1)
|
|
|
|
- Signed `.mobileconfig` profile that:
|
|
- Enforces FileVault
|
|
- Disables analytics, Siri uploads, advertising identifiers
|
|
- Configures application firewall
|
|
- Restricts iCloud to absolute minimum
|
|
- Enables Lockdown Mode (per-user opt-in guidance)
|
|
- Idempotent setup script for non-MDM hardening (default-app changes, Safari→SilverBrowser, etc.)
|
|
- Stack ports for macOS (universal binaries, notarised, signed)
|
|
- Setup guide for hardware-key 2FA, anti-forensics
|
|
|
|
## Out of scope
|
|
|
|
- Anything requiring kernel extension or system extension privileges beyond what Apple sanctions
|
|
- Anything that disables SIP / Gatekeeper (we keep both ON)
|
|
- Anything that requires bypassing Apple's signing chain
|
|
|
|
## Directory layout
|
|
|
|
To be populated in Phase 4:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
macos/
|
|
├── profile/ # .mobileconfig sources, signing
|
|
├── setup/ # idempotent setup script
|
|
├── stack-installer/ # native macOS Stack package builders (.pkg)
|
|
└── docs/ # setup guide, recommended apps
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Verification gates
|
|
|
|
- Profile signature verifies under Apple's signing chain
|
|
- FileVault confirmed enabled post-install
|
|
- Stack apps install via signed `.pkg`, run sandboxed where supported
|
|
- Setup script idempotent (verified by re-run with no changes)
|
|
|
|
## Upstream we depend on
|
|
|
|
- **Apple macOS** — base, unmodified
|
|
- **macOS Privacy Guide / privacy.sexy** — reference for hardening configs
|
|
- **Lockdown Mode** — Apple-provided, documented and enabled
