Why should you use BotShield?
BotShield offers unbeatable price-to-quality ratio and a lightweight, highly optimized codebase. During server attacks, it minimizes resource usage while maintaining high performance. Unlike other anti-bot solutions, BotShield does not use fall checks, complicated CAPTCHAs, or verification methods that require passing challenges on third-party websites to access the server. Instead, it employs unique, proprietary components that no one else has. Our innovative component Inspector effectively prevents bots from connecting silently.
Moreover, BotShield is capable of handling and reflecting attacks of any complexity, speed, and volume — whether it's bots, pings, bad packets, or any other malicious threats. To demonstrate its raw power, we subjected BotShield to an extreme stress test with over 50k+ bots per second. This was the peak rate of bots we could send to the test server during testing and BotShield handled it with ease, without any lags or micro-freezes. This proves that BotShield is an absolute leader in mitigating high-volume attacks. It protects your server from all types of attacks, ensuring stability and security.
We are the market leader providing exceptional protection. BotShield is compatible with all major server cores, including Velocity, BungeeCord, Paper, and their forks. You can customize the level of protection to suit your needs, and rest assured — with BotShield, your server is always under reliable protection!
Installing and setting up BotShield is quick and easy, taking only a few minutes. You can easily customize protection parameters to suit the unique needs of your server, and with regular updates and improvements, we ensure maximum security and optimal performance. We value user feedback, so you can leave reviews and suggestions to help us better understand your needs. Extensive documentation, including guides and FAQs, is available to assist you with any issues, and you can join our Discord community to connect with other users, share experiences, and receive support.

Q: How often is BotShield updated?
A: We release regular updates to enhance security features and improve performance.
Q: Is BotShield able to detect and block users utilizing VPN/Proxy services?
A: Absolutely! BotShield includes an advanced Anti-VPN/Proxy detection module to ensure your players cannot play on your server using such tools.
Q: What types of threats does BotShield protect against?
A: BotShield provides protection against various threats. It employs advanced algorithms to detect and mitigate these risks.
Q: Is BotShield compatible with other plugins?
A: Yes, BotShield is designed to work seamlessly with a variety of other plugins to enhance your server's security.
Q: Is it necessary to use any additional forks alongside BotShield?
A: No, additional forks are not required. BotShield is fully capable of managing and mitigating all types of attacks, including malicious packets, bots, pings, exceptions, and more. We are the only anti-bot solution that provides comprehensive protection against all attack vectors without the need for any forks. Our system is engineered to handle more than 50.000 requests per second directed to your network. Simply drag and drop BotShield into your plugin folder, and you're all set.
Q: Can I use BotShield with other anti-bots on the same server?
A: BotShield operates at the lowest level, processing connections before other anti-bot solutions, which may prevent them from functioning effectively. Therefore, to avoid conflicts, it is recommended to uninstall other anti-bot software and use only BotShield. If using a fork, ensure its built-in anti-bot feature is disabled.
You might wonder why we don't bother with CAPTCHAs and how we actually tell real players apart from bots. The reality of modern security is that any CAPTCHA can be broken. Even if a few advanced versions still work today, the rapid evolution of AI means it's only a matter of time before they are completely useless. Instead, we built our own internal module called Watcher. It analyzes connection behavior on the fly. It constantly compares incoming connection patterns against baseline behavioral profiles of real players. If a connection doesn't match how a human actually behaves, Watcher flags and drops it in real-time.
Core Defense
- Silent Inspector — Our core engine. It runs quietly in the background, filtering out malicious actors and bot traffic.
- Firewall — The first line of defense. Drops bad traffic instantly using strict network protocols.
- IPTables + IPSet Integration — Hooks directly into Linux IPTables. It blocks malicious IPs at the system level so they don't even touch your Minecraft server.
- Filter (Netty & Malformed Packets) — Stops crash exploits dead in their tracks. It filters out broken or corrupted Netty packets that generate tens of thousands of exceptions per second and crash unpatched servers.
Behavioral Analysis
- Watcher — Our custom behavior engine. It analyzes player actions in real-time and compares them against real human telemetry to catch smart bots.
- Fails Module — Tracks verification failures. If a connection repeatedly fails checks or behaves erratically, it gets flagged and blacklisted immediately.
- Advanced Module — A comprehensive suite integrating potent security components with algorithms that defy circumvention, ensuring absolute resilience.
- Order Module — Forces connections to complete tasks in a specific sequence. Real players do this naturally, but automated bot scripts completely break down here.
- Strict Mode — Crank up verification limits during heavy, complex attacks for maximum control.
Connection & Traffic Control
- Lockdown Mode — Activates emergency resource protection automatically during massive bot storms to safeguard your hardware.
- Startup Mode — Automatically locks down the server during restarts, protecting your system resources while everything is booting up.
- FirstJoin — Mitigates "slow-bot" attacks. It can temporarily kick brand-new players on their very first connection attempt to test if they are an automated script or a real user rejoining.
- Rate Limiter — Controls how many connection attempts and pings are allowed per second, stopping spam joiners from overloading the network.
- IP Limit — Puts a hard cap on how many accounts can log in from a single IP address.
- Latency Monitor — Kicks or blocks connections with artificially high or unstable ping.
Nickname Validation
- Pattern Recognition — Uses regex to detect randomized bot names and blocks them before they hit predefined limits.
- Nickname Filter — Instantly blocks known bot naming conventions and common dictionary lists.
- Length Validator — Enforces minimum and maximum character limits to stop overflow exploits caused by illegally long names.
- Digits & Letters Checking — Analyzes the structure of names (like counting digits or checking strings after underscores). This simple check catches hundreds of thousands of generic, auto-generated bot accounts.
Proxy & Geolocation
- Anti-VPN & Proxy Detection — We integrate 9 different free API services to scan connections. It completely blocks players trying to hide behind commercial VPNs, open proxies, or residential proxy networks without requiring any paid subscriptions.
- Cloud Verification — Cross-references incoming IPs against a live, cloud-based threat intelligence database to block known bad actors.
- Country Verification — Verifies players' countries via geo-data to prevent unwanted connections and ensure geographical compliance.
- Unknown Country Filter — Blocks countries not present in the database, including private networks, residential proxies, and other unknown country codes.
In-Game Control
- Chat Control — Adds a smart cooldown for chat messages and commands right after joining, killing registration and spam bots instantly.
- Register Guard — Analyzes password patterns during registration. If hundreds of accounts try to register with identical or sequential passwords, it stops them.
- Spam Shield — A robust anti-spam filter that catches and blocks bot-generated advertisements and chat floods.
