Network monitoring requires an annual subscription. Way too expensive for what it's offering!

I just installed this. It's shows just enough info to check on your network. Requires two processes: the ubiquitous Bitdefender Product Agent and the scanner itself. Hey, it's free!
I don't see the point of using one in a home network, I don't see anyone wasting his time trying to break in it...

I agree with you. I tried it for the fun of the experience. When you install this, BD spams you with a fear mongering message to sell their very expensive router with protection against all the latest and greatest. :emoji_fearful::emoji_fearful::emoji_fearful:
Too much paranoia nonsense in security forums, most members here have no reasons to install more than one or two security solutions...

instead of being scared and stockpiling security apps, research and learn security instead, and if you are still scared about your network being compromised, buy a decent router or buy/create a hardware firewall (PFsense, etc...)But I'm really, really afraid!

I guess you missed the exaggerated fear posed as humor! Oh well ...
on a discussion made elsewhere, i wont...here, it is hard to differentiate jokes and real paranoia...

Update: I had installed it just to try it, forgot to uninstall and like BD Free, it cut my WiFi out. BD products obviously don’t like my PC. Uninstalled, restarted pc, and voila! WiFi working again!
