That turns data into meaningful information you have a chance to actually appreciate.īright, pleasing colours. GlassWire is an elegant piece of software that offers in-depth information, and doesn't complicate the visuals. It can be hard to find software that tells you about your computer's security status in such a beautiful way as GlassWire, so I want to call attention to the design. Put simply, an ARP spoofing attack is a type of Internet security threat where a malicious user may pretend their MAC address is someone else's, allowing that malicious user to access networks or information that they should not, by pretending to be an authorized device. It can also tell you if your MAC (media access control) address associated with your IP address is changed, protecting you from an ARP spoofing attack. It can notify you of changes to your proxy settings, or your DNS server settings.
Glasswire suspicious host connection drivers#
GlassWire can tell you when network devices or drivers are added, removed, or changed. If you'd like a warning of when you go over a certain amount of bandwidth over a period of time, you can set that up under GlassWire's Settings > Security > Bandwidth Overage Monitor. You can also use GlassWire to learn how much bandwidth you're using, and how much data you upload or download. That's why GlassWire will leave a notification for you if system files like the 'hosts' file or 'lmhosts' file are modified, too. If you use your Hosts file to block websites on your PC without using software, you will want to know if that file ever got changed without you initiating it.
GlassWire also has an Application Info Monitor that can tell you if a version, publisher, certificate, or executable of an application has changed.
It will also notify you if an application ever initiates a connection to a suspicious host. GlassWire can display a notification the first time an application accesses the network. Monitor Changes to Applications & System Files
