Added swiftGuard to 'Utilities' category.

  1. [x] I have read the Contribution Guidelines
  2. [x] Project URL: Project on Github
  3. [x] Why should this project be added: It's an anti-forensic macOS tray application designed to safeguard your system or server by monitoring USB ports. It ensures your device's operational security by automatically initiating either a system shutdown or hibernation if an unauthorized device connects or a connected device is unplugged. It offers the flexibility to whitelist designated devices, to select an action to be executed and to set a countdown timer, allowing to disarm the shutdown process. It's a revive of the well-known usbkill project by hephaestos, but with an Graphical User Interface and added functionality.
  4. [x] End all descriptions with a full stop/period
  5. [x] Entry is ordered alphabetically
  6. [x] Appropriate icon(s) added if applicable (OSS, freeware)

Disclaimer: I'm an computer science student and developed this app by myself. I did not want to offensively spam/advertise my work here. I really think, it would improve this curated list and help others.

While certainly interesting, I don't think a v0.0.1-alpha version of any software qualifies for this list. Please feel encouraged to open a new pull request once your software has sufficiently matured and a stable release is available. I'm closing it for now.
