Network Security Monitoring – Track Exact URLs/Requests on macOS

Little Snitch offers three features that aren't available in MacOS' built-in ipfw firewall. (It does this by loading a custom kernel module.)

1. Little Snitch allows you to block outgoing connections; the MacOS firewall only blocks incoming connections. Handy if you're running some untrusted program and aren't sure what it's going to do, or if you want to disable a program for updating itself, or if you want to prevent access to a specific resource. Also, I suspect many people use Little Snitch to block pirated software from checking their license.
2. Little Snitch lets you configure the firewall per application, not just address or port. Ie: you can configure it so one web browser can access a web site but not another.
3. Little Snitch also monitors network traffic on a per-application basis. It's easy on MacOS to see how much bandwidth you're using but much harder to see which program is using that bandwidth. The Little Snitch shows network usage for each application, albeit in a limited way.

That being said, I don't think Little Snitch is "must have" software; these features are fairly esoteric. There are also several alternatives: TCPBlock and glowworm for the firewall and Rubbernet (now defunct) for the monitoring.

2016 Update: MacOS now has the per-application monitoring built into Activity Monitor.

You can delete the SSL certificate.
Go to Settings → General → Reset → Network Settings.
This resolves the problem.

[EDIT]

As of iOS 10.3.2 this does NOT work. Instead it wipes out your network settings, but does NOT remove certificate exceptions.
