Unusual Plist File Related to TouchID on Non-TouchID MacBook

I ran EtreCheck on two of my MacBooks. I must say, the results were rather surprising! On the MacBook that the attackers had access to and that contains among other compromises 10 (unknown, unauthorized) configuration profiles, the report did find some issues, but nothing missed completely some of the obvious signs (including the configuration profiles ), however on a newer MacBook, yes presenting signs of malicious management as well but that I didn't think was deeply affected, EtreCheck raised massive alarms and populated a lengthy major red flags. For privacy security, I would prefer not to share the report publicly. I send the reports to your support.

Thank You for Your Answers!

I appreciate the insights, but I believe it's critical to address the presence of the managedclient.profileplugin.TouchID on a MacBook Pro (early 2015) that is not part of any managed environment and notably, does not support TouchID hardware.

This situation could potentially point to leftover artifacts from unauthorized modifications or an attempted setup by unauthorized parties, especially given the device's history.

Typically, plugins like this are used to extend or modify the behavior of system services according to specific management policies. The fact that it's linked with TouchID—a feature that my MacBook does not support—adds an additional layer of concern. Is it possible that this was intended to intercept or emulate authentication processes, which could pose a significant security risk?

I may be reading too much into it, but I've conducted experiments that increase my concern. Each time I pressed the TouchID on my more recent MacBook, log activities related to com.apple.sharing.SDRemoteInteractionAgent were generated, indicating changes in UI lock status—locked and unlocked—regardless of the Wi-Fi connection status.

Moreover, I've discovered inexplicable entries related to AutoUnlock on both the 2015 and 2021 MacBooks, despite never having paired them with an Apple Watch. Combined with unknown and invisible keychain and HomeKit paired identities and a history of device compromise, these observations heighten my concerns about the security of my devices.

Regarding configuration profiles, I found user configuration profiles listed in the System Report under ManagedClient and Profiles (one of my MacBooks has 10 profiles), rather than under System Preferences where one might expect to find legitimate system management profiles.

These findings are disconcerting, and I'd like to understand whether these could be indicative of deeper security issues.
