Securing Your Server
Don't let hackers ruin your community.
1. Enable Whitelist
The best protection.
2. Online Mode
Ensure online-mode=true in server.properties. If set to false (cracked), anyone can log in as "Herobrine" or "admin" unless you use an Auth login plugin.
3. Anti-Exploit Plugins
Install GrimAC (Anticheat) or ExploitFixer to prevent players from crashing the server with invalid packets or lag machines.
4. BungeeCord Security
If using a proxy network, you MUST setup a firewall (like IPWhitelist) on your backend servers so players cannot bypass the login proxy.
