Upon install Bisq on my Mac running Catalina I get a notification that Bisq wants to ‘receive keystrokes from any application’. I hit deny. But now I am concerned about using this software. I verified the download and received this result. Am I ok? Why would Bisq want to receive keystrokes from any application?? ```auto T3000:Downloads nick$ gpg --digest-algo SHA256 --verify Bisq-1.2.9.dmg{.asc*,} gpg: Signature made Mon Mar 16 09:20:46 2020 MDT gpg: using RSA key CB36D7D2EBB2E35D9B75500BCD5DC1C529CDFD3B gpg: issuer "christoph.atteneder@gmail.com" gpg: key CD5DC1C529CDFD3B: public key "Christoph Atteneder " imported gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: imported: 1 gpg: Good signature from "Christoph Atteneder " [unknown] gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature! gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.

[It is a known issue that is being worked on](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/issues/3373). Also beware that Bisq is dealing with issues currently > [@Trading halted until v1.3.0 hotfix](https://bisq.community/t/trading-halted-until-v1-3-0-hotfix/9208): > > Bisq developers are currently investigating a critical security vulnerability, and the alert key has been used to temporarily disable trading. A hotfix release will be published within a few hours. EDIT: if you have any active trades right now, please DO NOT send any funds. EDIT 2: With the release of v1.3.0, trading resumes. Shortly after that, [v1.3.1 was released](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/releases/tag/v1.3.1), which is what you should now use.

Thanks for the quick reply. Has the install been compromised? Should I reinstall my OS? Not sophisticated to do anything less. Worried that something is logging my keystrokes in the background. ---

If you got the files from the website or the github and properly verified them, then nothing should be wrong. The two issues I mentioned above don’t seem to be related. But assuming this is your first time using Bisq it may be worth it to wait for the hotfix that will be released. ---

Ok thanks. I downloaded Bisq from [https://bisq.network/](https://bisq.network/) and verified the download with the results below. Is my computer secure? Why does Bisq want ‘keystrokes from any application’? ```auto T3000:Downloads nick$ gpg --digest-algo SHA256 --verify Bisq-1.2.9.dmg{.asc*,} gpg: Signature made Mon Mar 16 09:20:46 2020 MDT gpg: using RSA key CB36D7D2EBB2E35D9B75500BCD5DC1C529CDFD3B gpg: issuer "christoph.atteneder@gmail.com" gpg: key CD5DC1C529CDFD3B: public key "Christoph Atteneder " imported gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: imported: 1 gpg: Good signature from "Christoph Atteneder " [unknown] gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature! gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.

From my understanding, it isn’t a Bisq issue but the OS you’re using. That Github issue I linked above is the best source for information I can give you.
