GlassWire
Personal firewall and network monitor for Windows PCs and servers, plus an Android version
GlassWire is a network monitor and personal firewall for Windows PCs and servers that visualises past and present network activity on a graph. It shows which applications and hosts a computer is communicating with, alerts on new or unusual connections, and lets users block connections. It is positioned as a second line of defence to be used alongside a separate primary antivirus product, and it also tracks bandwidth usage and system file changes.
Features include Visual Network Monitoring, Network Time Machine, Hardware Resource Monitoring, Bandwidth Usage Monitor, Ask to Connect, Lock down mode, bidirectional firewall control, firewall profiles, an interactive world map, Evil Twin Detection, RDP Connection Detection, ARP spoofing monitoring, and a Management Console for viewing and managing multiple endpoints. Remote Server Monitoring lets users monitor remote and virtual servers from a local computer. An Android app is available for mobile data usage monitoring.
GlassWire offers a free edition for basic network monitoring needs and a Premium edition for advanced users, licensed per seat with tiers from 1 to 20 licenses.
