- skue 9y agoIn the FAQ, bottom of page: > Do I need LuLu if I've turned on the built-in macOS firewall? > Yes! Apple's built-in firewall only blocks incoming connections. LuLu is designed to detect and block outgoing connections, such as those generated by malware when the malware attempts to connect to it's command & control server for tasking, or exfiltrates data.
