Windows Firewall

The Windows Firewall application is a firewall with all the necessary functionality. You can monitor incoming and outgoing connections, customize your own rules and add exceptions. There is a convenient log and notification of blocked packets.

Filtering

After opening the application, the user needs to select the filtering mode. It is possible to activate the blocking of all connections or take into account a set of rules. There is a function of automatically changing the mode according to a specified schedule. For example, you can switch to a different blocking level after a certain period. You can explicitly prohibit other programs from adjusting the current filtering settings. You can also configure trusted groups that can make changes to the set of exceptions.

Blocking

The application allows you to flexibly configure blocking for certain programs. To do this, select the executable file via Explorer and generate a new blocking rule. Additionally, you can specify the port number, protocol and blocking direction. A convenient panel is used for customization, and there is a set of hints. At the installation stage, you can activate integration with the context menu. This will allow you to create new rules without launching the main interface.
