Fully Functional Trial • No credit card required  No email registration

When Windows services fail,
recovery should be automatic.

Service failures happen. Crashes, hangs, unexpected exits. FireDaemon detects the failure, restarts the service, and keeps systems running without manual intervention.

One platform for running and managing Windows services

Four products that work individually or together to cover every aspect of Windows service management, monitoring, and security.

Stop babysitting your Windows applications.

Run any 32-bit or 64-bit executable, script, or program as a native Windows service. FireDaemon Pro starts applications at boot, monitors for crashes, hangs, and failures, and restarts automatically using Windows service accounts including sMSA, gMSA, and dMSA where supported.

Access and control Windows Session 0

Interactive services run in isolated Session 0. FireDaemon Zero lets you switch directly to Session 0 from your desktop without logging off, so you can view, control, and troubleshoot services running in the system session.

Remote Windows service management from a browser

FireDaemon Fusion provides a secure web interface to monitor and manage FireDaemon Pro and Windows services across multiple servers. Includes REST API access for automation and integration. Requires FireDaemon Pro on each managed host.

Monitor SSL and TLS certificates before they fail

FireDaemon Certify One scans certificate infrastructure, validates certificate chains, detects expiry and misconfiguration, and alerts you before issues impact services. Includes visibility into post-quantum cryptography readiness.

Free Windows Utilities

FireDaemon ZeroInput, FireDaemon OpenSSL, and FireDaemon Lozenge are free Windows utilities for Session 0 input support, OpenSSL cryptography, and file integrity verification. Digitally signed and ready for production use on Microsoft Windows.

OpenSSL for Windows, patched and ready

Prebuilt OpenSSL 3.x binaries for Windows, patched against current CVEs and digitally signed for secure deployment.

FireDaemon ZeroInput

Restore input in Session 0

Enable keyboard and mouse interaction with applications running in Windows Session 0. Required for interactive service control with FireDaemon Zero.

Verify files and generate certificates

Calculate file hashes and create self signed SSL and TLS certificates and CSRs for internal use and testing.
