Apple Application Firewall is a security feature in macOS that controls incoming network connections to applications and services. It allows users to permit or deny network access on a per-application basis, enhancing system security by preventing unauthorized access.
About Apple Application Firewall
Apple Application Firewall was introduced in macOS 10.5 Leopard in 2007. It was designed to enhance the security of macOS systems by allowing users to control incoming network connections on a per-application basis, thereby preventing unauthorized access and protecting against potential threats.
Strengths of Apple Application Firewall include ease of use, integration with macOS, and effective control over incoming connections. Weaknesses involve limited customization options and lack of advanced features compared to other firewalls. Competitors include Little Snitch, Murus, and third-party hardware firewalls.
