Overview

Blocks remote-access and tech-support scams, alerting your family when fraud is attempted. Real-time scam protection for seniors.

KinSentry protects the people you love from online scams. Scammers target older adults with fake virus warnings, "tech support" pop-ups, phishing emails, and tricks to install remote-access software that hands over control of their computer. KinSentry watches for these in real time and stops them before any damage is done. Create a free account to turn on protection — it takes about 30 seconds, and every new account starts with a 30-day Guardian trial. No card required. What KinSentry does • Blocks downloads of the remote-access software scammers use to take over a computer. • Warns on fake virus alerts, tech-support pop-ups, and scam pages with a clear, easy-to-read overlay — and reads the warning aloud, so it's hard to miss. • Flags suspicious search ads on Google, Bing, Yahoo, and DuckDuckGo. • Checks email in Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, and AOL for common phishing tricks. • Replaces the new-tab page with a calm, uncluttered page showing protection status and recent activity. Searches from it go to your own default search engine — KinSentry never changes it. Plans • Free — blocks known remote-access and scam sites with a full-page warning. • Guardian — adds spoken warnings, scam-page and pop-up blocking, phishing email detection, and family alerts. • Family — everything in Guardian across 3 devices, plus a household dashboard and 90 days of history. Built for families On the Family plan, a family member can keep an eye out from a distance. When a scam is blocked on a protected device, a chosen family contact can be alerted — so you know to check in, even if your parent or grandparent never mentions it. Protected devices are set up in seconds with a simple invite code; no technical know-how required. Privacy first Scanning happens locally in the browser. KinSentry does not read or store the content of the pages you visit or the emails you read. When a scam is blocked, only that event is recorded to your account so the family-alert and history features can work. Set it up once and let it run quietly in the background. Peace of mind for them, and for you.
