osquery overview
osquery uses basic SQL commands to leverage a relational data-model to describe a device.
Processes running without a binary on disk
Frequently, attackers will leave a malicious process running but delete the original binary on disk. This query returns any process whose original binary has been deleted, which could be an indicator of a suspicious process.

Version: 5.8.2
I finally found a use for OSQUERY. Or perhaps I should say, found a product that uses it: Vanta.
Vanta is a SOC 2 compliance tool that once installed on a workstation, monitors for "un-binaried" processes (processes for which there isn't an app; malware) and other items that may raises suspicions. Vanta is effectively spyware, so I'd only put it on company-provided hardware, and there isn't (to my knowledge) any end-user purpose. Still, OSQUERY is the basis for how Vanta works. There may be some applicability for geeky types who wish to dig into the innards of their macOS.
