The USERS plugin collects information about current and deleted users on the system. If the mac is connected to a windows domain, then domain users who logged on to the system will also be listed. It returns basic account info, creation info, password info, last successful/failed logon and directory related information. Not all information is available in every version of macOS!

If the system has auto-login enabled, then the stored password is decrypted and made available here.

This plugin does not support standalone mode.

$ python mac-apt.py -x -o ~/Case_Output E01 ~/Acquisition.E01 USERS
