Intego NetBarrier X5 : Personal Firewall for Mac

Intego NetBarrier X5 is the Internet security solution for Macintosh computers running Mac OS X. It offers thorough protection against intrusions coming across the Internet or a local network.

NetBarrier X5 protects your computer from intrusions by constantly filtering all the activity that enters and leaves through the Internet or a network. NetBarrier X5 protects you from thieves, hackers and intruders, and warns you automatically if any suspicious activity occurs.

NetBarrier X5 has four lines of defense to protect your Mac and your data from intrusions and attacks.

NetBarrier X5 contains a personal firewall that filters data as it enters and leaves your computer. A full set of basic filtering rules is used by default, and its Customized protection mode allows you to create your own rules, if you need to.

NetBarrier X5 offers powerful firewall protection for your Mac, and its customized protection allows advanced users to configure specific rules to protect against foes who wish to infiltrate your computer.

NetBarrier X5 lets you control Internet and network access by individual applications. Whenever an untrusted application tries to connect to a network, NetBarrier X5 can display an alert, informing you which application is making the connection. If you want to allow that application to access the network—if it truly is an application you know should be using the network—then you can do so. But if an application tries to connect in secret, you can block it permanently.

NetBarrier X5 helps protect your privacy. It filters data to ensure that no sensitive information leaves your computer, blocks ad banners, and lets you surf anonymously. And it has a unique feature that hides information about your computer: its platform, which browser you are using, and the last web page you visited.
