CPU SPIKE

I'd say this is a huge part of the problem:

Top Processes Snapshot by Memory:

Process (count) RAM usage (Source - Location)

daemon 3.71 GB (? - /Applications/CyberPower PowerPanel Personal/PowerPanel Personal.app)

Delete this file & restart...

/Library/LaunchAgents/com.kinoni.epoccam.daemon.plist

Were you aware that most experienced users consider Clean My Mac as malware? Mac OS is extremely secure and if simply kept up to date it will remain so. It does not require nor benefit from using any third party antivirus, cleaning or any other third party "maintenance" utilities. Please find the developers instructions for uninstalling it and please do so. That is the major issue with from your EtreCheck report.

By the way, LittleSnitch used to be a good app some years ago, however it no longer has any value. I'd also uninstall that too. I would also uninstall the Seagate apps yo have installed, again, worthless.

I've scanned for Malware using CleanMyMac ...

Uninstall it in strict accordance with its instructions. Depending on what you used it to do, you must be prepared to completely erase that Mac and rebuild it from the ground up.

Rule 1 of Macs is don't install junk.

Apple security disabled - Apple security software is disabled. This computer is at risk of malware infection.

Re-enable it.

CleanMyMac is absolute garbage and virtually all of the senior members here consider it malware.

Start by getting rid of it.

You can't properly troubleshoot anything at all on your Mac as long as it's installed.

I installed then same software from cyber power and it spiked to use 100gigs of ram. It’s very bad software, had uninstall. Not sure if it’s poorly written or malware but it installed or used a daemon on relaunch that seems to kill the system.

Same issue here and narrowed it down to CyberPower PowerPanel Personal. Just nuked it from my system and CPU and Memory, consumed by 'daemon' dropped and returned back to normal levels.
