Eclipse ESCET shows 'PulseSetupClient.app' popup on first launch on macOS
From https://www.eclipse.org/lists/escet-dev/msg00536.html:
When I opened ESCET v.10-RC1 and did the usual security stuff on my Macbook, I suddenly got a popup on “PulseSetupClient.app”. I have never seen this particular application before.
ESCET seems to run fine without running this app.

The EclipseESCET-v0.10-RC1-aarch64 version runs fine on my (M1 Mac) system, no additional popups.

I also don't get that on Windows. I don't have a macOS to test with. I Googled '+eclipse PulseSetupClient' and didn't find anything (useful). Just Googling 'PulseSetupClient' I found this post: https://macsecurity.net/view/505-pulse-secure-app-will-damage-your-computer-mac-popup. It seems to talk about a VPN app (slightly different name though), and something with certificates. Are you sure it is not some VPN app that you have that coincidentally gave the popup at the time you tried the ESCET release?

I also didn’t find much when I googled for this particular application, especially in connection with Eclipse. So I agree with you it probably is some form of coincidence that it popped up while also dealing with the usual security messages of running an new ESCET application (also given that Bert didn’t experience this on his Mac).
From https://www.eclipse.org/lists/escet-dev/msg00542.html:
The strange “PulseSetupClient.app” is definitely triggered by starting the ESCET application for the first time. I just installed v0.10 and I got this popup again. So I don’t deem it a coincidence any more.
Let me see whether I can find a someone in the office that uses also a MacBook with Intel and is available to do a test.
