When you download the Agent on a MAC system, normally the file is being set with limited file

should set them for at least the root/Administrator account by using the chmod +x command.
chmod +x csia (If you are using the Administrator account, add sudo before chmod)

Browse to the directory where you have placed the csia binary file
Type the following command to install the agent: ./csia –i –L
The agent shows in the Secunia CSI console approximately 15 minutes after the installation.
To launch a new scan manually under the MAC Terminal, issue the command „. /csia –c’
Use the ‘-h’ switch to see a full list of parameters supported by the agent.
