What happens after you submit

  1. We email you a link to verify your address. It is valid for 24 hours.
  2. Once you click it, a welcome email arrives with the Warden installer link and your organisation key file, org.lic, attached.
  3. Run the installer on your server and select org.lic when asked. Installation takes about 10 minutes.
  4. Warden starts monitoring straight away, runs its first security audit and begins emailing you.

What you need

  • A 64-bit Windows Server 2016 or newer, or a Windows 10 or 11 PC that acts as your server. Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 are not supported.
  • An administrator account on that machine, to install the service.
  • Normal outbound internet access (HTTPS). No inbound ports or router changes.

What the trial includes

Monitoring and email alerts work as on the paid plan. The limits: the security audit is view-only (no fix button), up to 3 manual IP blocks a day, no block link in alert emails, no Guard Secure Access, one alert recipient and a shorter event history. See all features and pricing.
