Presentation and Unboxing of Bitdefender Box 2

For 250 euros, Bitdefender unveils its ultimate solution against the biggest scourge of smart health connected objects, the lack of IoT security. Not a week goes by without a media article on the hack of an institution via a smart health smart health connected object. The latest, that of a casino "robbed" by hackers via a smart health connected thermometer. If things tend to change, developers of innovative products are often start-ups who prefer invest in the proper functioning of the object, rather than in the safety of its latter. This is easy to understand, since their cash flow is often very limited before their first successes.

In 2017, Wikileaks revealed "the biggest information leak in CIA history". According to whistleblowers, the United States government has created more than a thousand viruses, Trojans and other malware to infiltrate smart health connected objects around the world. Data protection is at the heart of current affairs. The Bitdefender Box of 2015 is back today in a new, easier to use and safer version. The little box plugs into your network and blocks, like an antivirus, any suspicious activity. While the first version only had a 64MB single core processor with DDR2 memory, the new generation is equipped with dual core processor, with DDR3 memory. The case has also been changed. It is now longer, more imposing, more ventilated, to improve the cooling of the internal components.

The Bitdefender Box 2 presents itself as an all-in-one solution to secure your smart health connected fridge, your Google health home, your smart TV, in short, everything that is smart health connected to your internet network. Very interesting, the box also offers VPN function to surf anonymously. Thus, connect from his smartphone, his pc or any other device, the user can buy on the internet securely.

It is delivered in a white, minimalist box, all in length. It contains the box, the instruction manual, the power cable and the Ethernet cable. The long Bitdefender Box also sports a simple off-white style.

Installation and handling of Bitdefender box 2:

To install the box, nothing's easier. It is smart health connected directly to the internet box or to the external router. Now is the time to install the application Bitdefender Central on your smartphone. The device will then ask you to “clone” the Wi-Fi network to secure it. It is on the latter that you will have to connect to navigate in peace. Your phone will then scan and list all the smart health connected devices at your box. It will determine the threat levels for each computer, smartphone or object smart health connected via Wi-Fi. Note that a subscription is required to take full advantage of the Bitdefender Box's functionality. Rest assured, the purchase of the security system guarantees you a one-year subscription.

The Bitdefender Box alerts you, via the interface of the mobile application, security breaches of your devices. Thus, your old smart health connected objects will be fully secure and monitored for any hacker intrusion attempts.

Does Bitdefender Box 2 really work?

The promise of a finally secure internet seemed too good to be true. We simply went to an e-commerce site, known for selling counterfeits, FYYgames.net.

Bingo, when ordering a sports cap, the app warned us of a potential risk. Indeed, the site does not offer a secure 3D system and the connection to the customer account was not secured by the HTTPS protocol. BitDefender Box 2 has therefore fulfilled its role well and perhaps saved us a bad surprise with our bank. The most experienced among us would surely not have continued their purchase on the site and would have noticed that the URL started with HTTP instead of HTTPS.

But for the less attentive of us, it’s a good way to prevent fraud and scams that are legion on the internet. As far as we are concerned, BitDefender has managed to seduce us. From now on, the editorial staff will be protected from all malicious attacks or sites.

Conclusion:

Skeptical, we quickly changed our mind following our Bitdefender Box 2 Review. The device is working and effectively blocking threats from the internet regarding the hack of your smart health connected objects and the security of online payments. The price, 250 euros, may seem high. But it is the price of tranquility. A theft of your bank details following an online purchase can cost you a lot more. Add that at this price, your smart health connected devices will all be protected from hackers, and that the box guarantees you an antivirus on your entire local network for 1 year. To try it is to adopt it, as far as we are concerned, we will never disconnect the box from our modem again.
