Server Guard

🔐 ServerGuard – Advanced Server Protection for Minecraft

ServerGuard is a powerful and lightweight server-side Minecraft mod designed to protect your server from unwanted connections, unauthorized access, name spoofing, and scanning bots — all without requiring any client-side installation.

Whether you're hosting a public, private, or cracked server, ServerGuard gives you full control over who can connect and how your server appears to outsiders.

✨ Features

• ✅ IP Whitelist & UUID Whitelist
  Only allow specific players or IPs to join your server.

• 🚫 Name Blacklist Filtering
  Block usernames containing suspicious or banned substrings (e.g., "admin", "bot", "exploit").

• 🕵️ Ping Obfuscation (Anti-Scan)
  Hide sensitive server status (player count, mod list, version info) or make the server appear offline to unauthorized users.

• ⏱️ Protection Timer
  Temporarily disable protections for a limited time to allow known players to join (useful for events or maintenance).

• ⚙️ Fully Configurable
  Simple JSON-based configuration and data files stored in the config/serverguard/ directory.

• 📡 Server-Only Mod
  Works 100% from the server — no client installation required.

🧪 Use Cases

• Block known bots or attack attempts.

• Hide your server from status scanners or mass connection tools.

• Allow only approved IPs or UUIDs to connect.

• Prevent name impersonation or suspicious login patterns.

• Create event-based access windows with the timer system.
