Mac's firewall software to block outbounds... open original image

Hello.



What do you guys use if you use one? I heard good thing about Little Snitch. Are there any more like it, but freeware and simple/light to customize (e.g., Kerio Personal Firewall, Outpost Firewall 2009, etc. in Windows)?



Thank you in advance. :)

Working up to Yosemite ... I think you should look at the original webpage where they offer it, the first web was only so you could begin searching. I am using LittleSnitch and I am very glad with it .. but used before (Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion times) theese firewalls front-end. Cheers.

Why not musing ipfw, it should be onboard already. Besides, bringing complex software onto a complex system, doesn't make it more secure. It's then more the opposite.

So far, Little Snitch is my favorite. Others are complex to use. :/
