Tracing Digital Intent: New MacOS Tahoe 26 Artifact Discovered

A new forensic artifact, App.MenuItem, has been discovered in macOS Tahoe 26, which logs user menu interactions such as 'Compress' and 'Move to Trash' to provide insight into user intent. This artifact is stored in a SEGB-encapsulated protobuf format within the Apple Biome system and requires specialized tools like ccl-segb for parsing. The data enables investigators to reconstruct user workflows, such as data compression and deletion, enhancing visibility into potential data exfiltration or malicious activity.
