Tinywall is a firewall that is mainly active in the background and does not show a pop-up with every app that requests access to the internet.
You know the dangers of the internet and the added value of a firewall, but are you looking for a free firewall that is compact and simple? The makers of Tinywall also used those principles. This is a firewall that is mainly active in the background and does not show a pop-up with every app that requests access to the internet. From a security philosophy, try to prevent the makers from getting tired as a user and with every notification thoughtlessly Allow clicks.
How does it work? If you have an app that you would like to give access online, you can use a shortcut and click on the window of the relevant app. Instead, you can also call a list of active programs and quickly determine by app whether they can gain access. The makers go far in their ‘no pop-up’ approach. If an app does not have access, you will only notice it because you cannot use the app. The options are accessible via an icon in the system profession of the Windows taskbar. If you need more advanced options, you can also reach them via the system profession. The compact character of the firewall in particular is striking. The program is smaller than 2 MB. Keep in mind that immediately after installation the majority of internet traffic is no longer permitted: after this you give the apps one-for-one access to the internet.
