Required macOS permissions
(Updated: )In order to live up to its promise of ultimate Mac protection, Moonlock will request a few essential permissions during setup:
- Full Disk Access
Required for scanning all areas of your system, including locations like Mail, system folders, and user libraries where malware can hide. - Network Filters
Enables features like the VPN and Network Inspector. This allows Moonlock to monitor network activity and block suspicious connections securely. - Notifications
Moonlock may alert you to potential threats, important updates, or security recommendations via macOS notifications. You can adjust how these appear in System Settings > Notifications.
You’ll be guided to grant each permission during setup. If you skipped one, you can grant it later in System Settings > Privacy and Security.
