Once the hardware is installed, users are able to monitor and customize the settings through an accompanying Android or iOS [mobile](https://www.websitemagazine.com/blog/mobile/default) app.   It is important to note that in order for Bitdefender BOX to protect users' IoT devices year after year, users must renew their yearly subscription to the service.   "With 35 percent of Americans planning to invest in IoT devices in the next six months, the need for a solution to help enable the 'Security of Things' is more critical than ever before," said Catalin Cosoi, chief security strategist of Bitdefender.   "We are confident knowing Avangate can handle everything from the initial delivery of BOX's hardware component, to managing the recurring online subscription for our additional software services, helping us alleviate the monetization challenge inherent to IoT and allowing us to focus on our technology and go to market strategy."   [![](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/bitdefender_box-1-1-1-1.jpg?width=450&height=343&name=bitdefender_box-1-1-1-1.jpg)](https://www.bitdefender.com/box/)   ![Peter Devereaux](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Peter_Devereaux.png) [Peter Devereaux](https://www.websitemagazine.com/marketing/author/peter-devereaux) As the Editor-in-Chief of Website Magazine and President of Website Services, Peter has established himself as a prominent figure in the digital marketing industry.
