SecureMac debuted PrivacyScan at Macworld | iWorld in San Francisco on January 26th 2012. With the launch of PrivacyScan in the Mac App Store, the security product placed in the Top Ten for all paid apps and ranked #1 in Utilities and is still available for the introductory price of $4.99 (USD or equivalent) for a short time.

PrivacyScan works by searching for known applications which leave files on the computer that could lead to privacy concerns. PrivacyScan offers support for a wide range of items and apps, including popular web browsers such as Camino, Chrome, Firefox, Flock, iCab, OmniWeb, Opera, Safari, SeaMonkey, and Shiira, privacy threats presented by Flash Cookies, as well as standard apps such as Finder, Preview, and QuickTime. Once a scan has run its course and privacy threats have been detected, PrivacyScan offers a variety of choices for cleaning — from a standard quick delete to one of the many secure delete shredding options.
