If you own an Android device, you may already be familiar with Fing as the company has an app on the Google Play Store. Fing allows you to scan your home network so you can find out what devices are connected to the network, and more importantly detect intruder devices and other security threats – something which concerns us all more and more every day, thanks to the number of devices we now have connected to a home network.


Using the proprietary technology from the Fing app, a team of developers has created Fingbox, an all-in-one affordable network and security toolkit for homes.

“Today’s homes are in the dark about what is happening on their network, especially when it comes to security. Homes need a simple tool to manage their connected technology and protect themselves against threats” said Domenico Crapanzano CEO of Fing. “We have listened to thousands of Fing users which have asked us for more control and better oversight of their networks. Fingbox lets anybody secure their home network and troubleshoot their wifi problems, for an affordable one-off cost of less than $50!”

Fingbox is packed with user-friendly features for securing and troubleshooting a home network. One of the big differences between Fingbox and an actual network scanner, is that Fingbox looks to ensure that your network is 100% monitored, all of the time. Network scanners by contrast, only protect you when you command them to do so, Fingbox will always be running, always be ready, and always be protecting your network.


Fingbox features include:

24/7 Network Security : In a matter of seconds, Fingbox automatically finds all devices on the network regardless of brand. The status of all devices is monitored continuously, including those essential to home security like smart locks and thermostats.
