Discord Anti-Raid Protection: Complete Guide for Server Owners
TL;DR
KenwoodBot anti-raid monitors join velocity and auto-lockdowns the server during attacks. Anti-nuke detects mass channel deletions and rolls back changes automatically. Configure join thresholds, quarantine new members, and enable recovery commands for post-raid cleanup.
Server raids are one of the most destructive events a Discord community can experience. A well-coordinated raid can destroy months of community building in minutes. This guide covers how to protect your server using KenwoodBot anti-raid and anti-nuke systems.
Types of raids
Join raids: hundreds of bot accounts join simultaneously to spam or harass. Nuke raids: a compromised admin account mass-deletes channels and bans members. Spam raids: coordinated message spam across all channels. Harassment raids: targeted harassment of specific members. Each type requires different countermeasures.
How KenwoodBot stops join raids
KenwoodBot monitors join velocity — if normally 5 people join per hour and suddenly 100 join in 60 seconds, the bot activates lockdown. The server enters quarantine mode: new members cannot chat until manually verified by staff. Staff are notified instantly via DM and dashboard alert.
Anti-nuke protection
If a compromised moderator or admin starts mass-deleting channels, banning members, or changing permissions, KenwoodBot instantly revokes the attacker permissions, restores deleted channels from backup, reverts permission changes, and notifies all admins via multiple channels (DM, ping, dashboard).
Configuration recommendations
Small servers (under 1K): enable slow mode on new members for 10 minutes, set join threshold at 10 joins/minute. Medium servers (1K-10K): enable verification gate, threshold at 20 joins/minute. Large servers (10K+): enable all layers, threshold at 50 joins/minute with automatic quarantine.
Post-raid recovery
KenwoodBot logs every banned IP and flagged account for future reference. Use the auto-recovery command to restore channels and settings. Review the incident log to understand the attack vector and close the security gap.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between anti-raid and anti-nuke?
Anti-raid prevents mass joins and spam attacks. Anti-nuke prevents server destruction from compromised admin accounts. KenwoodBot includes both.
Can anti-raid block legitimate new members?
Configure carefully. Set thresholds based on your normal join rate. Use quarantine instead of blocking — new members can verify with staff rather than being locked out.
Conclusion
Every server needs anti-raid protection. Configure based on your size, test your thresholds, and ensure your staff knows the recovery procedure. KenwoodBot makes it easy with one-command setup and automatic rollback.
