Hi raym,

The new permission is required to be able to use an interface of the O/S that allows the driver to get pixels that are supposed to be displayed on screens connected to DisplayLink devices.

Similarly, on Catalina, you probably noticed you are now being asked to grant permissions for various apps trying to access files in various locations on your disk that are potentially sensitive. (DisplayLink driver does not need any of that in order to work)

Both examples are part of the improved security mechanisms Catalina brings - giving more control to users.

Kind regards,
Michal
