Description
Hi,
As BlockBlock 1.x has been moved to Endpoint Security framework and in WWDC20 Apple promises additional protections when using ES as System Extension, is there also plan to migrate current BlockBlock LaunchDaemon to System Extension for those "free" anti-tempering measures provided by Apple, and pointed out by Trail of Bits's Sinter?
Thanks

Research direction
Start by reviewing the current BlockBlock LaunchDaemon and how BlockBlock 1.x uses the Endpoint Security framework. Then compare the existing design with Apple's System Extension protections described for WWDC20 and the linked Sinter article. Done would require a defined migration plan or implementation scope, but the issue does not specify files, tests, or acceptance criteria.
