What is /usr/libexec/rapportd?
After update to 10.13.2 Firewall asked whether I want to allow network access.
Is it from apple?
If not-where does it come from? The only thing I found was that Trusteer has a tool named rapport but I did not install it (maybe in combination with another product but not that I am aware of).
OBS MacBook Pro (15-inch 2.4/2.2 GHz), macOS High Sierra (10.13.2)
More information about the software from one of the leading computer security professionals A Closer Look at Rapport from Trusteer — Krebs on Security.
This should clear out most of the confusion.
I think we are discussing a completely different daemon! (so afraid article is not relevant). Just happens to have same name as the IBM/banking system app few have installed.
Wrong OS platform. The link is for Windows, not Mac OSX.
How did you remove it? If I kill the process from Activity Monitor it just starts back?
Cryptocurrencies? Seriously? Does no CPU whatsoever and only connects to local IP addresses (so far, as reported by Little Snitch on my computer). Hardly relevant to cryptocurrencies!
IBM rapportd is not applicable nor associated in this thread. I'd be talking about an Apple-provided rapportd.
As am I.
I have NEVER installed the "IBM" version; it was the only information I found after Google searching information about the process.
thank you neliason. It just started happening to me today.
192.168.*.* is a private IP address. That should be your own local network. Im pretty sure a device, like your iPhone or iPad, on your network is requesting access.
All 192.168.x.x addresses are local addresses. Uninstall your antivirus app. It is not needed and may cause issues or alert on false positives.
