The built-in macOS app switcher is great if all you use are one-window applications. But you probably have many windows open in many apps, possibly with many tabs, and navigating them all is a pain. Enter Witch, with which you can switch everything…
Multiple Switchers
Can't decide whether you'd like to switch apps, windows, or tabs? With Witch, you don't have to decide; you can have as many switchers as you like.
Every switcher's actions—including sort order, orientation, and tab handling—can be customized to suit your needs.
Flexible Switchers

Unlike the built-in macOS app switcher, Witch isn't locked to one layout. As demonstrated in the splash movie, it can be set up horizontally, to mimic the built-in app switcher. Or it can also be used vertically, as seen in the above screenshots. But Witch has one more layout option: Menu bar mode.
Any Witch switcher can also (or only) be shown in your menu bar by checking the 'Show in menu bar' box on any defined Witch action.
Seek and Ye Shall Find
In addition to traditional 'see target, select target, activate target' switching, Witch supports search-based switching. Activate the search field and start typing—Witch will thin the list of matching targets in real time, making it simple to select just the app or window or tab that you want to activate.

More Nice Things
Spring-load lets Witch do the work for you. Once enabled on the Advanced tab, Witch will automatically drill down and show the selected app's windows and/or tabs after the specified delay period.
Switch to accessory apps when they have standard windows open, e.g. our own Moom's preferences window when it's run in menu bar mode. These are typically invisible to the built-in application switcher.
Control Witch's powers by disabling its hot keys in certain apps, by excluding apps from its switcher, and by hiding unwanted windows—your graphic app's tools palette, for instance—from the switcher.

Plus much more: Set the panel's colors and fonts; define where the panel will appear; act on windows via keyboard shortcuts (H for hide, M for minimize, etc.); and so much more. Give it a test drive now and see all Witch's switching tricks for yourself.

The algorithms for all of the AppleShare Authentication methods are public. I don't see this as a problem. The security of the method is in the math, not in some secret algorithm. The AppleShare password encryption method he mentions, is probably the method for storing the passwords in the Users & Groups data file on the Server, which is only a problem if you send your attacker that file (AppleShare won't share the System folder on the server). Or, if the attacker has physical access to your server, then he/she could copy the Users & Groups data file; of course your server should ALWAYS be in a secure location.
The most widely used (at this time) auth method is 2 Way random (introduced in 1989) which sends two 8 byte DES encrypted random numbers over the network. From a computational standpoint the algorithm is exactly as strong as 56-bit DES. It is however vulnerable to an off-line password guessing attack (similar to running crack against a unix passwd file), and it has a password length limit of 8 characters.
We have developed a new authentication method that addresses the weaknesses of 2 Way randnum, called DHX. DHX uses Diffie-Hellman key exchange to create a 128 bit session key and then sends a 64 character password to the server encrypted with CAST 128. It's strength is approximately equivalent to 128-bit SSL. (iDisk uses DHX)
So I suppose the answer to the question is, we've been doing 56-bit encryption since 1989, and we're in the process of moving to 128 bit encryption. Both are reasonably safe on the Internet, and infinitely safer than protocols like FTP, POP or HTTP which send passwords in the clear over the network.
