![]() Usually more info than the average user needs or understands. ![]() Snitch tells you what app is in communication to what address and on what TCP/IP port. Big Sur still allows to load kexts they are just not advertising it, kexts have to be manually added from restore mode or whatever is called. Little snitch tells you when something tries to talk to your computer or vice versa. Right now i have downgraded to Little Snitch 4.6 on ObDev's advice (from their website). However, ObDev knew about this, and they still took my money for the upgrade knowing their product was useless against the apple process whitelist and didn't disclose this until somebody else on twitter cried foul. When an application on a system running Little Snitch makes a new, previously unseen connection, Little Snitch will present a pop-up asking the user if the connection should be permitted or not. This is not a little snitch problem per se, apple discontinued kernel extensions and instead required all traffic filters to be reimplemented in user space to make sure its processes are not affected by filters. Little Snitch is a popular host-based firewall for macOS, used for monitoring and restricting egress network traffic. ![]() These processes cannot be firewalled or tunneled. I bought a license for Little Snitch 5.0 prior to my update to Big Sur, just to find that it doesn't block a set of 50 something processes from apple, and these processes can be hijacked quite easily by an attacker.
