Regulate internet traffic
Individually regulate the access to the network and Internet per application. Allow access to the Internet only those programs, you unconditionally trust.

Access notification
If a non-regulated program wants to access the Internet, you will receive immediately a notification with which you can permit or block Internet access.

Paranoid mode
Trust no one! In Paranoid mode, no software can access the Internet or network, without your prior consent. Only applications that you trust get Internet access.

Credulous mode
Are you a credulous person? Do you have no fear of your privacy? In Credulous mode, all applications will have access to the Internet or network until you explicitly prohibit it.

With the software, you determine which program transfer data in the background and prevent them. So your personal information doesn't fall into foreign hands.

Block botnets
Botnets consist of a lot of computers that are running malware in the background and can be remotely exploited for attacks. The program notifies you about data transfer in the background, which you can quickly block.
