AI vs AI The new frontier in cyber defence →

Every server and every PC, watched, backed up and protected.

Two products from one UK company. pcarmour Server Shield backs up, monitors and defends your servers and every website on them. pcarmour Pro keeps every PC healthy, patched, safe and easy to support. Both block attacks by themselves, and both have AI that tells you what to fix first.

AI defence

Attackers now use AI. So does your defence.

AI lets attackers find new weaknesses within hours, write convincing scams and guess passwords around the clock. Rules alone can't keep up, and nobody has time to read every log. pcarmour pairs fast automatic blocking with AI that reads, checks and explains what is happening on your servers and PCs, and says what to do first.

Their AI

  • Scans for new flaws within hoursFresh vulnerabilities are tried against websites and servers soon after they are published.
  • Guesses passwords that adaptSlow, spread-out attempts from many addresses, built to stay under simple limits.
  • Writes scams that look realEmails and fake sign-in pages that get people to click, type and install.
  • Hides in the noiseSmall changes and odd log lines that a busy person never gets round to reading.

pcarmour's AI and automation

  • Blocks in seconds, everywhereAn address caught guessing on one server is banned on all of them, alongside the big public blocklists. Slow guessing spread over days is caught too.
  • Reads what nobody has time toHealth reports weigh vulnerabilities, open ports, updates, backups, attacks and logs together, and Windows servers' event logs get a daily AI review.
  • Finds the cause, not just the symptomPro's AI report traces "it's slow" to the failing update or full disk behind it, with the evidence and a fix to run.
  • Researches what it doesn't knowUnfamiliar software is looked up on the web, so the advice fits what is really installed.

Server Shield

"What this server does"

An explanation of any server in plain words, from its services, ports, busiest programs, websites and databases. Ideal when you inherit one.

Server Shield

AI backup wizard

Scans a server, ticks what to back up with a reason for each, sets database frequencies and spaces every job so nothing collides.

Pro

Ask a follow-up

The AI report is a conversation: "I ran that, it still fails" and it takes what was tried into account, for that PC.

AI advises; you stay in charge. It never changes a server or PC on its own. Fixes run only when an engineer presses Run, dangerous actions on servers need your physical security key, and you set a monthly limit on what AI may spend.

pcarmour Server Shield

Install it with one line. Server Shield finds the websites, databases, services and apps on each server by itself, backs them up, watches them, checks them for known vulnerabilities and blocks the people trying to break in. You see every server on one screen.

One console for every PC you look after.

Every PC scored three ways

Security, health and network scores, each saying exactly what lowers it. What needs attention is at the top, with remote tools one click away.

  • Inventory: maker, serial, memory, disks, battery, TPM, programs, browser extensions
  • Two days of charts as standard, a month with history

Ransomware: caught in seconds, contained by itself

Hidden decoy files sit where nothing should touch them. When something does, Pro freezes the program (keeping its memory, where the key may be), isolates the PC and tells you.

Threat hunts: read about an attack, know by lunch

Paste in an advisory. Pro picks out the files, hashes, addresses and domains, and every PC looks for them. Found programs can be stopped and quarantined, and any hash blocked everywhere.

For IT teams and managed service providers

Built for looking after many companies.

Each client in its own space, each technician with only what they need, and clients who can see the work you do for them.

Clients, sites and groups

Folders per client and site, templates that set every feature for the PCs inside, and overrides for any one machine.

Roles that fit

Owners, admins, technicians, read-only staff and website-owner logins, limited to the clients they work on.

Reports clients read

A monthly report per company for PCs, a weekly summary for servers, and AI health reports written in plain English.

Alerts your way

Email, Pushover and webhooks per client or team, by severity, with quiet hours, snoozing and a note when it is put right.

Everything audited

Who changed what and who connected where, kept for every account, with jobs logged against each machine.

Two-factor and security keys

Sign-in with an authenticator app or a security key, and a fresh check before anything that could do harm.

Safe by design

Security software that does not become the weak spot.

Tools powerful enough to fix a server or PC are powerful enough to harm it. Ours are kept on a short lead.

A key in your hand

On servers, blocking traffic, running scripts and rebooting need your physical security key, and each server checks the signature itself. Even we can't send those commands without it.

No open doors

Our agents only ever connect out. They never open a port that someone could attack.

Signed updates with roll-back

Every update is signed and installed beside the last one. If it misbehaves, the agent puts the last good version back by itself, even offline.

Your data stays yours

Backups go to your own storage in standard formats, with instructions in every folder. You can restore without us.

Light and careful

Heavy checks wait for backups to finish, run at low priority and never on a busy disk. Fine on a 1 GB server.

Made in the UK

Built and supported by a UK IT business that runs pcarmour on its own servers and PCs every day.

Better together

Servers and PCs, side by side.

Most businesses have both. Use one product or both: the same credits, the same prices and the same way of working.

  • The same credits and price bands in both, with warnings three, two and one week before they run low.
  • Alerts in one place: both send to the same email, Pushover and webhooks.
  • Clients in their own spaces in both, with read-only views for them.
  • One login and one wallet for both on the way

Questions

What people ask before they start.

Which product do I need?

Server Shield for servers: anything hosting websites, email, databases, phone systems, files or apps, on Linux or Windows Server. Pro for the PCs and laptops people work on. Many businesses use both.

Will it slow my servers or PCs down?

No. The agents are small, run heavy checks at low priority, wait for backups to finish and skip busy times. Server Shield runs happily on a 1 GB server.

Where do my backups go?

To your own storage: a NAS in your office, an SFTP or S3 server, OneDrive, SharePoint or Google Drive. They are ordinary archives you can open with tar or 7-Zip, encrypted if you choose, with restore instructions in every folder.

Can it lock me out of my own server?

Blocking only starts when you touch your security key, runs on a five-minute trial and undoes itself unless you confirm. Your own addresses and recent good logins are never blocked.

I already have Imunify360, fail2ban or an antivirus.

Keep them. Server Shield reads Imunify360's results and works alongside fail2ban and the server's own firewall. Pro works with Defender or the antivirus you have.

What does the AI see, and what does it cost?

Only the readings the dashboard already has about that server or PC: no personal files. A report typically costs a few pence in credits, and you set a monthly limit.

Is there a contract?

No. Buy credits when you need them and switch features on or off per machine. You get emails three, two and one week before credits run out.

Who are you?

pcarmour is made by IT Pro Expert, a UK IT support business that uses it on its own clients' servers and PCs every day.
