SecureLine TAP
« on: May 23, 2022, 03:36:55 AM »
Why does Avast Firewall show SecureLine TAP as an unidentified network? I think it is a driver for Avast's own SecureLine VPN

Hi,

When SecureLine is turned on, the "public" FW profile is activated. Hence, the firewall shows this connection as an Untrusted (Public ) network. "Unidentified network" is what Windows provides and Avast uses this information.
