macOS Stealth Installation

Install We360.ai MyZen Stealth agent on macOS — discrete employee monitoring software setup with silent background operation.

Prerequisites

Requirement	Detail
OS	macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) or later
Admin rights	Required for Stealth mode
Apple Silicon	Rosetta must be installed if prompted

Never rename the stealth installer file. The encoded filename contains your organization's license key and configuration. Renaming it or allowing extra characters to be appended (e.g. (1) from duplicate downloads) will cause the installation to fail. Use the file exactly as downloaded.

Download the Installer

1. Log in to the We360.ai web portal as an administrator.

2. Click the Download Apps button in the top bar.

3. In the Mac section, click Stealth to download the installer (filename is a Base64-encoded string ending in .pkg).

Install

1. Locate the <encoded-name>.pkg file in your Downloads folder and double-click it.

2. If macOS displays "macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware", click OK.

3. Open System Settings > Privacy & Security. Scroll to Security and find the blocked installer message. Click Open Anyway.

4. Enter your macOS credentials when prompted.

5. Click Open on the confirmation dialog.

6. The installer window appears. Click Continue.

7. If prompted with "Installer would like to access files in your Downloads folder", click OK.

8. Select the destination disk and click Continue.

9. Click Install, then enter credentials and click Install Software.

10. When "The installation was successful" appears, click Close.

11. Optionally keep or discard the PKG file when prompted.

Permissions

In stealth mode, macOS permission prompts will still appear for the logged-in user:

• Accessibility -- prompted on first run. Must be approved in System Settings.

• Screen Recording -- prompted on first run. Must be approved manually (cannot be pre-granted by any MDM). After granting, a logout/login or app restart is required for the permission to take effect.

• Browser URL Reading -- prompted when a browser is first used. This permission is not skippable and cannot be granted beforehand without PPPC.

Post-Installation Notes

• Stealth mode does not display a visible application or dock icon.

• The app will not automatically start until a lock/unlock cycle is performed. A restart is recommended.

• When uninstalling on macOS, a system restart is required.

• Consider clearing browser download history on the target machine if confidentiality is required.
