Aug 02, 2013 Welcome back to my blog! Today I'm going to talk about programming, specifically, Automating Little Snitch. Basically, Little Snitch is a Mac firewall program that monitors every application that connects to the internet. If there is a program that connects to the internet, it displays a popup and wait for what you do.
Little Snitch Being Upgraded
Unlike a stateful firewall, which is designed primarily to protect a system from external attacks by restricting inbound traffic, Little Snitch is designed to protect privacy by limiting outbound traffic.[2] Little Snitch controls network traffic by registering kernel extensions through the standard application programming interface (API) provided by Apple.[3]
If an application or process attempts to establish a network connection, Little Snitch prevents the connection. A dialog is presented to the user which allows one to deny or permit the connection on a one-time or permanent basis. The dialog allows one to restrict the parameters of the connection, restricting it to a specific port, protocol or domain. Little Snitch's integral network monitor allows one to see ongoing traffic in real time with domain names and traffic direction displayed.
