EngageSearch

EngageSearch is a misleading Mac utility that claims to give users the ability to enhance their Web searching experience. However, users who end up falling for this trick and authorizing EngageSearch's installation may soon notice that their searches are being redirected to 3rd-party search engines like Safe Finder – while Safe Finder does provide credible results, it may include more advertisements than usual. Another issue with EngageSearch's presence on your Mac system is that it may introduce unwanted advertisements in your Web browser.

Needless to say, EngageSearch is not a useful utility, and you should strive to remove it as soon as you perceive the symptoms of its presence. The EngageSearch application may latch onto your Mac by setting up a new 'Device Profile' and 'Launch Daemon' that give it persistence and make manual removal a more complicated task. Thankfully, there's no need to deal with EngageSearch manually – you can eradicate this Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by running an up-to-date Mac security scanner.
