I wonder if the Windows 11 firewall can prevent data leaks by creating a rule that blocks incoming and outgoing connections for an executable file, such as *bitcrack.exe*, in case the developer has embedded a spyware module that transmits keys and scanned ranges over the network. Or is the most reliable option to run the brute-force process on a computer completely disconnected from the internet?

I have blocked inbound and outboud rules on windows for executable program accessing the internet.
you can verify netstat -n, before and after blocking connection.
