Trying to understand how notarization by #Apple for apps downloaded outside #AppStore works and what the benefits are: They are scanned for known malware, but that doesn’t mean you are protected against e.g. data exfiltration? Like a text editor that open files locally but also sends them to a cloud server.

This is where #LittleSnitch is a possible solution. But what if the app wants to access something on Cloudflare? How could to tell if that’s a benign connection or not?

OMG! After migrating* to macOS Paranoia I launched the Passwords app and even before I entered my password to unlock it, Little Snitch started asking permission for *each* entry. 🤦🏻‍♂️ I had to allow all connections so I didn't have to sit here all day clicking Allow.

*note I didn't say "upgrading."

Iihks….
Was erlaube #Apple !?
Was erlaube #Mail ??!
Seitdem ich wieder #LittleSnitch nutze fällt mir immer mehr komisches Verhalten auf :(

Wenn man in den #Einstellungen von #AppleMail auf die Accounts Seite geht - testet Mail alle *jemals* bekannten E-Mail Konten durch und versucht eine Verbindung zu den Mail-Server herzustellen.

Auch von Konten die schon lange gelöscht (nicht nur deaktivert) sind und gar nicht mehr in der Liste sichtbar sind.

Grüße an die IT der letzen 3 Arbeitgeber…

Pokud jste uživatelem Maců a zároveň lehce paranoidní (čímž nechci tvrdit, že po vás nikdo nejde), možná byste se měli podívat na #LittleSnitch.

Je to monitor síťového provozu dávající vám plnou kontrolu nad komunikací vašich aplikací. Zkuste mrknout, nová verze 6 je zase o kus lepší.
