Monitor
We monitor key device-health information such as storage, memory, update status, and other important system conditions.
Simple, professional computer monitoring, maintenance, and secure remote access for your home.
We handle the ongoing computer maintenance in the background so you spend less time thinking about updates, device health, and routine management.
Limited to the first 50 qualifying family enrollments.
Most home computers only get attention when something goes wrong. Pinkerton MSP Managed Home IT helps keep your household computers monitored, maintained, visible, and accessible before problems become interruptions.
We monitor key device-health information such as storage, memory, update status, and other important system conditions.

Receive an easy-to-read monthly computer health report showing important information about your enrolled devices and managed activity.
Securely access your authorized home computer from your laptop, tablet, phone, or another supported device when you are away.
Privacy: Pinkerton MSP monitors technical device-health information. We do not continuously view your screen, personal files, browsing history, webcam, or email. Remote sessions occur only through the configured remote-access service and its permissions.
Windows and macOS updates are managed and monitored to help keep your computers current while reducing unnecessary interruptions.
Supported Windows security updates and system patches are managed in the background while update status is monitored for problems.
Supported macOS updates and common applications are kept current to help reduce security risks, compatibility problems, and manual maintenance.
Restarts on Your Schedule: When an update requires a restart, we schedule it during your maintenance window whenever possible to minimize interruptions to normal computer use.
Every month, you receive a real computer health report showing the status of your enrolled devices, security protection, storage health, installed software, maintenance activity, and remote support history.
Review operating system, hardware, memory, storage, BIOS, and other technical information for your enrolled computers.
See whether your enrolled computer is reporting active antivirus protection and current protection status.
Your report can include a detailed inventory of detected applications, versions, and publishers on the enrolled computer.
Review when remote support sessions occurred and how long they lasted, providing added visibility into technician activity.
Actual report examples shown. Identifying information has been modified or removed for privacy. Report contents may vary based on device, operating system, and enrolled services.
Securely access your enrolled home computer from your laptop, tablet, phone, or another supported device. Use your normal desktop, files, and applications without exposing your home computer directly to the public internet.
Your access stays controlled: Remote-access permissions are limited to enrolled computers assigned to your account. Pinkerton MSP technician access is separate from your personal remote-access session and follows the configured support permissions.

Transparent terms, defined technical boundaries, and strict personal privacy standards. Here is exactly what our residential management covers.
Pinkerton MSP does not continuously monitor your screen, personal files, browsing history, webcam, or email. Remote-control sessions occur only through the configured remote-access service and permissions.
Remote access is permission-controlled. Customers can be given access only to their authorized household computers, and Pinkerton MSP configures remote-access permissions according to the service settings.
We support modern residential hardware running Windows 10, Windows 11, and macOS (Monterey or newer). Both desktop towers and portable laptops across standard home workstations are fully covered under active management tiers.
Supported Windows, macOS, and third-party application updates can be scheduled during defined maintenance windows, and update status can be centrally monitored. Some updates may still require a restart or user interaction.
Third-party antivirus is not included in the base Managed Home IT plan. The service focuses on computer monitoring, managed updates, device maintenance, reporting, alerts, and remote access. Additional managed security options may be offered separately.
No. This is a dedicated remote system maintenance and health monitoring service. It is designed to automate patch hygiene and detect drive failures early, rather than functioning as an open-ended personal tech helpdesk or on-call tutorial service.
Setup is designed to be simple and typically takes only a few minutes per computer. You’ll install a lightweight application using the secure install link provided after signup.
Limited to the first 50 qualifying families. Keep your First 50 Families rate of $24.99/month for as long as your qualifying subscription remains continuously active.
