Discord security and verification
PulseGuard
Configure deterministic detection, raid containment, browser verification, and retention.
Open PulseGuardGetting started
PulseGuard works with deterministic protection first. Verification and external scanners stay optional.
Invite the bot
Add PulseGuard to the Discord server you moderate, place its role high enough for moderation and containment actions, and sign in to the dashboard with Discord.
Review trusted administrators
Limit trusted-admin configuration to people who should be exempt from permission escalation and containment checks.
Set retention and thresholds
Start from the default raw-content retention window and anti-raid velocity thresholds, then tune them once you know your server's normal activity.
Enable modules deliberately
Start with deterministic detection and containment, then add verification, cross-server scam sharing, OCR, or ClamAV as your community needs them.
Protection modules
Signals combine content, behavior, permissions, and account context.
Raid and nuke detection
Monitors action velocity, permission escalation, destructive changes, and coordinated behavior.
Content detection
Checks scams, suspicious links, invite spam, mass mentions, floods, custom keywords, regex rules, QR codes, OCR text, and attachment hashes.
Containment
Quarantine and lockdown actions limit damage while backup and restore tools preserve recoverable configuration.
Behavioral and cluster analysis
Activity baselines, confusable-name and edit-distance checks, and cross-account clustering catch coordinated behavior that keyword rules alone miss.
Member verification
PulseGuard is the central verification product across the Pulse ecosystem.
Browser challenge
New members can complete a local proof-of-work challenge with confidence scoring and moderator review for uncertain cases.
Network signals
Trusted networks and locally refreshed hosting, proxy, VPN, and Tor ranges contribute risk signals instead of acting as a single automatic block.
Reverse proxy safety
Only enable TRUST_PROXY when the real proxy overwrites X-Forwarded-For. An append-only proxy lets clients spoof their address.
Product ownership
PulseRP no longer runs a separate verification gate. Verification configuration and member review belong here.
Configuration and privacy
Discord commands and dashboard forms use the same guild-scoped configuration contract.
Discord configuration
Use /config and /automod for retention, velocity, trusted admins, invite allowlists, lockdown behavior, and content rules.
Dashboard configuration
The guild configuration page exposes the same settings with security scores, timelines, and quarantine management.
Retention
Choose raw-content retention intentionally and keep private evidence only as long as moderation operations require it.
External data
Malware and CSAM hash matching are built into the detection pipeline; connecting a licensed threat-intel feed and NCMEC reporting is in progress.
