Paragon Firewall for Mac Community Edition

Key Features

• Silent mode: Sometimes, it’s convenient to work in silence. You can turn off all notifications and temporarily allow or block all outgoing connections.
• Alert mode: Whenever a new app tries to go online, you’re prompted whether you want to allow it to communicate over the Internet, and your choice is remembered.
• Block separate app: Block single app allowing others to work freely. Blocked apps won't be able to set outgoing connections with remote servers and to send data.
• Activate/deactive through one click: To stop the app you need to click a button and all connections will be recovered. Your settings and rules will be preserved.

paragon_firewall_ce's Issues

Hide from Doc

Hi! Thank you for the great app!
How I can hide the app icon from Doc?

Why macOS Catalina only?

I use macOS Catalina 10.15.4 so its fine, but I like to know why only support Catalina?
I think Paragon Network Firewall is a front end of the PF CLI present also in Sierra and Mojave, but probably I'm wrong.
I think it maybe useful if developer public more information about the functionality of the Paragon Firewall for Mac.
Thanks
