🔐 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.

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).

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

Works 100% from the server — no client installation required.
