<p>You can stop holding your breath. Down the rabbit hole of neat, lesser-known Terminal commands is back! ICYMI, I’ve recently found myself fascinated by all the helpful tricks Terminal can do to improve my productivity and overall make me more proficient behind a Mac as a security practitioner. In previous editions, I covered everything from enabling Touch ID for sudo (https://9to5mac.com/2025/03/07/stop-typing-your-sudo-password-use-touch-id-instead/) authentication to cleaning up public Wi-Fi connections (https://9to5mac.com/2025/03/14/security-bite-clean-up-public-wi-fi-connections-with-a-script/). This week, I share even more commands I’ve since discovered.</p>
