Security is no longer a nice-to-have — it’s the foundation of a healthy online community.

In Discord’s recent guide on securing your server, they lay out clear, actionable steps every server admin should follow:

• Use server verification levels (such as using Sledgehammer)
• Enable 2FA for moderators
• Limit dangerous permissions (such as ‘Manage Server’ and ‘Administrator’)
• Monitor new members
• React quickly to raids and spam (Beemo’s great at this, together with Sledgehammer)

At C12s, we couldn’t agree more. These basics are essential — but even with the right settings, staying secure is a daily battle. That’s where AI can step in and give moderators the backup they need.

Here’s how C12s helps keep your server secure:

• 24/7 spam and scam detection
  Automatically catch suspicious messages before they spread.

• Behavioral monitoring
  Flag unusual message volume, repeated links, or high-risk patterns typical of raids.

• Custom rule enforcement
  Apply your server-specific policies consistently across all user interactions.

• Real-time alerts
  Get notified of issues before they escalate — even when no human mod is watching.

Security isn’t just about settings — it’s about speed, consistency, and having eyes everywhere. C12s doesn’t replace your team; it gives them superpowers.
