Performance Improvements

• The Configuration app starts much faster, especially if there are lots of rules and large rule groups.
• Network Monitor starts faster.
• Filtering connections in Network Monitor is faster.

Improvements

• Option-click on the disclosure icon of a connection in Network Monitor now expands to all descending rows.
• Improved opening of the map in Network Monitor to make sure the map is shown within the visible area of the screen, moving the window to the left if necessary.
• Visual feedback when clicking connection endpoints on the map in Network Monitor.
• Improved presentation of Little Snitch background processes in System Settings > Login Items on macOS Ventura.
• The default schedule for performing rule group updates has been changed to Daily. If you prefer to perform these updates manually, you can choose the desired schedule in the rule group editor (right-click the group in the sidebar and choose “Edit” from the context menu).
• When creating a manual rule backup, the last used backup location is now preserved (instead of always suggesting the home folder).

• Fixed a bug in Network Monitor where clicks on map annotations did not work.
• Fixed a bug in Network Monitor where a click on the disclosure icon of a connection did not reveal details.

• Fixed possible crash of the Little Snitch configuration app when System Extension configuration changed during display update.

Are you worried about the security of your Mac and the data it holds? Look no further than Little Snitch by Objective Development. This app is a game-changer when it comes to taking charge of your Mac's security.

Little Snitch's primary function is to alert you when apps try to connect to the internet. It gives you the power to block suspicious connections instantly. It does this through two powerful monitoring options: Alert Mode and Silent Mode. In Alert Mode, you receive instant alerts about new connections and can choose to allow or deny them. In Silent Mode, the app monitors every connection in the background, and you can review them later to block any that seem suspicious.

If you want to see where your data is going, Little Snitch's Network Monitor visually maps out all connections made by your Mac. This feature provides real-time insight into transferred and blocked data, thanks to animated lines.

Defending your privacy and data is essential in today's digital age, and Little Snitch helps you do just that.
