I had asked a security expert what his thoughts were on 4Shadow: “.the MIM protection is great defending against a 2000 era Arp attack…but in no way protects your traffic from WIFI eavesdroppers.” If this is true then I’m sure near future updates to 4Shadow will not only improve protection for the user but performance and squash nitpicky bugs. Looks like I might just uninstall it for a while, possibly forever. it’s back to one star till they update & fix the issue. Well, several days later that same irritating firewall is disabled issue is back again! So. The Dynamic Notifications feature allows users to generate alerts with severity fields. Update: I changed it to “Apple Firewall” went into 4Shadow’s Preferences>Network Safety>Advanced and white listed some ports which I should’ve done sooner and I changed my rating to 3 stars since that seemed to dismiss the firewall is disabled error. Switched to “Apple Firewall” in 4Shadow’s preferences pane and again, on reboot the warning cannot be cleared unless I continue to annoyingly open 4Shadow’s preferences. I‘m not sure what the differences are but after I removed the incorrcet warnings I set it back to “Default Apple Firewall” which did not remove the warning after a reboot. My biggest gripe is the annoying alerts that cannot be dismissed saying my Ffirewall is Disabled, which it isn’t and they cannot be removed or cleared until I went to 4Shadow’s Preferences and changed it from “Default Apple Firewall” to “Apple Firewall”. this was a great app but it appears Novacoast cease to be and app no longer works on catalina.Apple should do a better job or removing apps from the store that. Cannot clear old “Firewall is Disabled” AlertsĢ.2.1 update: Annoyingly I cannot clear old “Firewall is Disabled”alerts from May of this year, otherwise it seems to be working ok. 4Shadow provides real time analysis of potential malicious network activity, host-based anomalies, and system configuration checks, with alerting using the Notification Center.
