If I get a Seraph Secure alert, can I still safely use my computer?

Yes, rest assured that Seraph Secure has identified and blocked a potential scam threat and protected you. If you have an account guardian, they will be notified depending on the type of threat detected.

What is a guardian?

A guardian is someone (a trusted friend or family member) who is assigned as an administrator on a Seraph Secure account. If you have a guardian who has set an account up for you, this person will receive text and email notifications about any Seraph Secure alerts you may receive. Guardians do not see any of your private information or browsing history - they will only be alerted should Seraph Secure detect a potential scam threat on your device.

How and when is a guardian notified?

Assigned account guardians will be immediately notified via email and text should you receive a Seraph Secure alert. The notification will tell them the same information that is provided on the alert. Your guardian may reach out to check on you to make sure you are okay and not actively being scammed.

What are Seraph Secure alerts?

Seraph Secure is designed to trigger an alert for several different reasons to keep you safe. Alerts will trigger if software is detected on your computer allowing someone remote access, if Seraph Secure detects unusual activity on your computer, or if you visit a potentially malicious website. The alert will have information and next steps to take and will also alert your guardian if your account has one assigned.

Is it safe to use my device after I get a Seraph Secure Alert?

Your computer is safe to use after an alert from Seraph Secure - rest assured that Seraph Secure has identified a potential scam threat and protected you. Any threat has been blocked and your guardian will be notified so they are aware of the situation.

I closed out of the alert. How can I check what it said?

If you received an alert, you can check your alert history in the Seraph Secure application. To do this, locate the Seraph Secure icon in the system tray in the bottom right corner of your taskbar. The Seraph Secure icon is a blue shield with a white wing. Open Seraph Secure by left clicking on this icon. Locate and click on the "Alert History" button in the bottom right. You can also view alert history from your account dashboard.

Does Seraph Secure store my information?

Seraph Secure has your privacy in mind and aims to protect it. To keep you safe, Seraph Secure does monitor web activity. However, we do not log, track, or sell your data. If you do visit a scam website, we will store that information so your guardian can be notified. Information that is not related to a scam will not be stored or tracked. See our Privacy Policy.

Is Seraph Secure an antivirus?

No, Seraph Secure is an anti-scam software, not an antivirus software. It is compatible with antivirus software, but they work in different ways and one is not a replacement for the other. An antivirus software can prevent you from downloading malware and viruses and help you remove them, but they do not prevent scammers from connecting to your computer. Seraph Secure was developed to protect you from online scams and can detect specific activities related to scammers. Seraph Secure will also block malicious websites, phishing attempts, and send real-time alerts to a guardian.

How do I uninstall Seraph Secure?

  1. Open the main application window by clicking on the Seraph Secure shield icon in the Windows system tray - this is located at the bottom right of your screen near the clock. You may need to click (^) "Show hidden icons" first.

  2. From the main "Device Protection Running" window, click on ☰ Menu (top right) and choose About Seraph Secure

  3. In the About Seraph Secure window, click the Uninstall Seraph Secure button

If you are using the Premium version of Seraph Secure, you will need to enter your Admin PIN. This can be found on the Profile page of your dashboard.
