CentralStructured

CentralStructured is a dubious application that relies on deceptive distribution methods to install itself unnoticed onto users' Mac systems. Usually, these include bundling or hiding inside fake software installers and updates. In short, this application is classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) and could potentially carry out several suspicious activities on the system.

The first signs that CentralStructured has infiltrated your Mac would be observed while you are browsing. The Safari extension carried by this PUP could cause the browser to open on its own or crash if it is already running. The whole Mac system also may be affected with frequent freezes accompanied by a brief message with the following message - 'Installation Complete…' On top of these annoying occurrences, CentralStructured may be used by its operators to deliver unwanted and intrusive advertisements or potentially carry out data-harvesting activities on the system.

However, getting rid of this PUP could prove to be tricky. If the problem is not eradicated completely, it can restore itself via the persistence mechanism it establishes on the affected Mac. To make sure that no traces of CetnralStructured are left behind, it is recommended to use a professional security solution to run a thorough scan of your device.
