I would like to ask a couple of questions about setting my MBP up securely. I am an older generation brand new to Mac user. I have been a pc user for about 25 years but strictly user only, never involved with how it was setup. As I read on the forum, I should not install any commercial av or spyware detection apps, so ok. But I am just not clear about security setup on my MBP.
I have a firewall setup on my ISP Westell 7500 router altho I think it is weak, I have been told that if you have that and then setup a secondary firewall on the Mac, that could cause problems. The other thing is that I am unclear about is what all to allow in incoming/outgoing connections. I am also however, paranoid, so can you offer some advice on this?
