SecurityBot

Introducing: SecurityBot's Free Tier Any Discord server can now protect their community today. No subscription required, no trial, and no catch. Real scam prevention at no cost

NEW FEATURE: DISABLE DMs Tired of your community members getting dozens of scam DMs? SecurityBot can now disable DM communication in your server, allowing only friend-friend, and mod DMs. Keeping your community safe, even outside your server.

@_Just_Jinx SecurityBot has a free tier and a premium tier. The premium tier has more features and no usage caps. The free tier is great for communities just starting out or who want to try SecurityBot, then as they grow the premium tier becomes the right fit.

@SecurityBot_ And correct me if I am wrong but you also charge $200 per year for what?

Alysa Liu recently went viral for her Teen Vogue rant on building a successful Discord server "They create a nice server and host events, but everyone forgets the key piece; security. It's not like there's an excuse anymore, SecurityBot's free tier will protect your community."

@bunjavascript who knew Alysa was so knowledge on javascript package managers AND keeping communities safe from scams x.com/SecurityBot_/s…

Alysa Liu recently went viral for her Teen Vogue rant on migrating from `pnpm install` to `bun install` “Youre keeping pnpm-lock.yaml around as a safety net which is exactly the problem. Delete it, set linker = “isolated” in bunfig.toml explicitly — don’t rely on configVersion.”

you can protect your community for $0 take advantage of SecurityBot’s free tier today 🦾

@JSHyCS Protectionware for all ❤️

Today, we're launching a free tier for SecurityBot. That is something I've wanted to do for a long time, and I wanted to explain why we did it, what it means for communities already using SecurityBot, and where we're headed. 👇 What drives SecurityBot Ever since I created SecurityBot in my dorm room nearly 5 years ago, I've been focused on building top of the line "protectionware". Protection that doesn't get in the way and works quietly in the background, so that you can focus on what you're here to do: build, learn and grow in a safer and more accessible Web3. That has always been the vision of SecurityBot: "ensuring the digital ecosystem is safe and accessible for all". That doesn't just apply to Web3, though that's my primary focus, I want to make all communities safer. This free tier is a direct expression of that vision. If you believe in protecting the internet, it has to be accessible to all. Why free, and why now When I started SecurityBot in 2021, every server needed a subscription. That made sense at the time. It funded development, covered infrastructure, and kept the product alive through multiple market cycles. But that also meant that smaller communities, new projects, and anyone just getting started in Web3 had no way to protect themselves or their community. And those are the exact people that need our help the most. A new project with a small community and no experience is a great target for scammers. The timing of this isn't lost on me, either. The market is in another rough patch. We're seeing companies and projects tighten their belts, reduce costs, and buckle down for what could be a long winter. Scam prevention shouldn't be on the chopping block. If the goal is a safer Web3, we can't only protect the communities that can afford it. The most vulnerable communities need protecting the most. What the free tier includes We worked really hard to make sure this free tier didn't feel like a trial, or a demo. It is a real scam prevention product that provides real value. Free communities get scammer join alerts powered by the same network-wide database that has been banning scammers in all our premium communities. They get all the chat filters for phishing links, Discord invites, scam wallet addresses, and ADA handles, with a cap on how daily filter actions. They get CAPTCHA-like verification for new members and full activity logging. For smaller or early-stage communities, that should be enough to stop scams on day one. What Premium unlocks Premium is the same great SecurityBot you've come to know and love. At $20/month, you remove all the limits. Unlimited chat filter actions, no allowlist caps, impersonation protection, purging, channel locks, webhook monitoring, automated scammer bans, and more. If you run a significant Discord server with an active community, real assets, and a staff team, you will feel the difference. A note to the communities that got us here To every server that has been with us: your subscription isn't changing. Nothing is being taken away. The free tier makes your protection stronger by expanding the network you already rely on. If you feel that the free tier is all your community really needs, I totally understand and you can downgrade your subscription at anytime. Where we're headed The free tier and Premium are just the beginning. We're building toward Pro and Enterprise tiers that will serve larger organizations and multi-server networks with custom Discord integrations, more advanced tooling, dedicated support, and infrastructure built for scale. But more broadly, the vision for SecurityBot is bigger than any single tier or feature set. Protectionware that makes online communities safer shouldn't be limited to one platform or one ecosystem. What we've built for Web3 Discord communities is a foundation, and we intend to build on it. If your organization has needs beyond what Premium offers today, I'd love to hear from you. We're actively working with enterprise partners in the Cardano ecosystem and beyond, and the roadmap is shaped by the communities we serve. Protection should be accessible. Today we took a real step toward that. Get started at securitybot.info - Josh Founder, SecurityBot

Get setup right now: securitybot.info This free tier would not have been possible without the support of the hundreds of servers that have used SecurityBot over the years. We're excited to continue to provide the best tooling to keep you safe. Thanks for the support 💜

What the free tier includes: - Scammer join alerts - Complete chat filter suite with limited filter actions/day - CAPTCHA-like verification - Activity logging When you're ready to upgrade to premium ($20/month) you unlock: - Auto-ban scammers - Bot purges - Unlimited filters and allowlists - Impersonation Protection - Channel Locks, webhook monitoring, and more

Introducing: SecurityBot's Free Tier Any Discord server can now protect their community today. No subscription required, no trial, and no catch. Real scam prevention at no cost

IMPORTANT NOTICE We've been quietly working hard on a >60k line refactor for the past few months. This work should enable faster development, fewer bugs, and new exciting features. Part of this change is a rework of our command surface. Links to learn more below 👇

You know what we're focusing on 😉

February, finally. Longest month done, lighter days ahead, fresh energy loading 🌿 What are you focusing on this month?

@SlapVentures Thanks for sharing this! Definitely sounds like you could use some help from SecurityBot 👀

🚨⚠️ IMPORTANT: This attack has already affected several servers in the #Cardano ecosystem ⚠️🚨 What happened: In recent days, we've observed a wave of attacks on Discord servers within the Cardano community. Our Slap! server was also targeted. Thanks to a quick response, we managed to contain the situation, but we want to warn the entire community this attack can affect anyone. How this attack works: Step 1: The bait You receive a DM or see a post a collaboration proposal, job offer, invitation to a new project, participation in an airdrop. Something that sounds interesting and legitimate. Step 2: Fake server You click the link and join a Discord server. It looks professional. To access the channels, you need to "verify." Step 3: Verification page You click the verification button and get redirected to an external website. The site looks legit similar to other verification pages you've used before. Nothing seems suspicious. Step 4: Session theft If you're logged into Discord in your browser, the site silently steals your session token the keys to your account. The attacker doesn't need your password or 2FA codes. They already have access. Step 5: Taking control From your account, the attacker takes over servers where you have permissions. They create admin roles, delete channels and logs, ban team members, and then send the same links to others from your account, which appears trustworthy. Why this is dangerous for Cardano: - Attackers target people with permissions on project servers - Compromised admin account = compromised server = threat to the entire community - Links sent from trusted accounts have higher success rates - The attack spreads rapidly between connected servers 🚨 Accounts linked to the attack: • soumaya (@diva8fu) — ID: 854993363753238528 • liwane (@liwane) — ID: 830771374179745792 • Dyno (@dyno_3681) — ID: 594892848613294091 • Bobit (@.bobit_) — ID: 635642832157147137 • Mazi (@mazi1505) — ID: 850533171497009152 If you see activity from these accounts on other servers report and ban them. How to protect yourself recommendations for Cardano community: For users: - Never click "verification" links leading to external websites - Real verification happens inside Discord (reaction, command, bot) - Don't scan QR codes "for verification" - Be suspicious of unexpected collaboration offers or proposals For admins and moderators: - Check role permissions on your servers only trusted roles should have Administrator - Review webhooks and integrations - Enable 2FA requirement for moderation (Server Settings → Safety) - Educate your community members about this threat If you clicked a suspicious link: - Immediately change your Discord password - Log out all sessions (Settings → Devices) - Remove unknown apps (Settings → Authorized Apps) - Scan your computer with antivirus software ✅ Slap! server status The attack was detected and neutralized. All suspicious accounts have been banned, permissions restored, and security strengthened. Slap! server is safe. Our community is operating normally. We're publishing this information to warn others and strengthen the entire Cardano community. Only together can we defend against such attacks. Stay vigilant. Look out for each other. #Cardano is strong because of its community. 💙

🚨 BREAKING NEWS In the last 30 minutes alone, SecurityBot banned 361 known scammers from protected communities 🤯 That's 12 scammers every minute 🥴

@JSHyCS @snek similar vibes

I don't have to imagine 😉 we got the purging feature rebuilt and relaunched last night. Woke up this morning to nearly 2,600 bots removed from the @snek community. we're literally stopping scams in our sleep 🥱

Imagine waking up and seeing that 2.5k bots were purged from your community 😍

Do YOU see an invite to a scam discord server in this message? 👀 SecurityBot does, and that's what matters 😉 Scammers hate SecurityBot. You hate scammers. Therefore, you should use SecurityBot.
