My Mac is a work computer that used to have LANDesk installed. My admin ran a script that uninstalled it. However, when my machine starts I still get prompted to allow apps from LANDesk (vulscand, cba, proxyhost) to accept network connections. Neither my Admin nor I can figure out where these apps are hiding.

vulscand landesk app notice

When I run sudo find ~ -iname "LANDesk" or sudo find ~ -iname "vulscand" in terminal both return no results. I also do not see it listed in the OS X Activity Monitor app.

How can I find where "vulscand" is located on my system?

Maybe it's a LaunchAgent? See here to stop. See here to remove.

If you want to find the actual file try EasyFind. It'll find things that Spotlight does not, especially non-user oriented files.

  • It worked!! That is exactly where they were hiding. I'll add an answer with the exact steps I took. – Justin Apr 05 '16 at 20:12

I finally found the LANDesk system files (and removed them) with finder:

  • /Library/LaunchAgents
  • /Library/LaunchDaemons
  • /Library/Preferences
  • /Library/StartupItems

To remove from launchctl:

sudo launchctl list | grep "name to find"
sudo launchctl remove "label.of.the.file"
