Protection

Clean. And actually protected.

A full security console built into your cleaner: a posture score, malware scanning, a privacy-permission audit and a vulnerability sweep. All read-only, all on your Mac, nothing uploaded anywhere.

Protection

A clean Mac is only half the job.

SiftSpace doesn't stop at storage. A full security console checks how exposed your Mac is, hunts for malware, and shows you exactly which apps can watch, listen and read your files. Read-only, on-device, nothing uploaded anywhere.

94/ 100
Strong
Disk encrypted Firewall on No malware found
Security checkup
FileVault, firewall, Gatekeeper, SIP, sharing and account hygiene — graded into one 0–100 score with one-tap jumps to the right setting.
Malware scan
YARA signature scanning hunts known macOS malware across launch points and your home folder. Detection only — nothing is removed without you.
Permission audit
Every app holding Camera, Microphone, Screen Recording, Accessibility or Full Disk Access — shown with its real icon, and unsigned apps flagged.
Vulnerability scan
Pending security updates, unsigned apps, risky setuid binaries and library-injection persistence, surfaced in plain language.
Startup & persistence
Audits launch agents and daemons, flagging orphaned or modifiable entries — the classic foothold for spyware.
How the audit works

Security you can actually trust.

Read-only by design

Every check looks, never changes. SiftSpace reads your Mac's posture and reports it. You decide what to act on, with a one-tap jump to the exact setting.

On-device and sudo-free

No signatures uploaded, no account, no admin-password theatrics. The audit runs locally using the same signals trusted security tools rely on.

Explained in plain language

Every finding tells you what it means and why it matters, with AI-assisted explanations on the way for anything you want to dig into.

Safe by design

Ruthless on clutter. Gentle with everything else.

Everything to Trash
Nothing is ever hard-deleted. Recover any item from Finder until you choose to empty the bin.
Two-step confirmation
Before anything moves you see exactly what and how much, then acknowledge what can't be recovered once the Trash is emptied.
App data is sacred
Docker images, VM disks, databases and AI models are never treated as junk. Deleting them would break your apps, so SiftSpace won't.
Your secrets, untouched
Keychains, Mail, Messages, SSH and cloud keys are walled off from cleanup, always.
Nothing risky pre-selected
The safe choice is the only default. You opt in to anything beyond it, every single time.
100% on-device
No cloud, no account, no telemetry. What's on your Mac stays on your Mac.

Clear the clutter. Create space.

Reclaim gigabytes on your Mac in minutes. Safely, and for free.
