--- title: "Discord anti-nuke: stop a hacked account or a rogue moderator · Orion Shield" description: "Orion’s anti-nuke counts each member’s actions over 15 minutes and stops whoever deletes channels, roles or bans in a row. Built for hacked accounts." url: https://orion-shield.com/en/anti-nuke language: en alternates: fr: https://orion-shield.com/anti-nuke --- Protection # The anti-nuke that stops a hacked account before it empties your server A “nuke” is a server destroyed from the inside: channels deleted one after another, roles wiped, members banned in a row. It comes from an account with permissions, a rogue moderator or, far more often, a hacked account. Orion recognizes it by its behaviour, whatever its role. [Add bot](https://orion-shield.com/invite) [Discord Server →](https://discord.gg/BC3rE6f7GB) ## Every action counts, over 15 minutes Orion counts each member’s sensitive actions over 15 minutes. As soon as a member goes over the limit, Orion stops them and applies the sanction you chose. An alert with the member goes to your logs, and your notification roles are mentioned. - Channels deleted or edited in bulk - Roles deleted or edited in bulk - Bans and kicks in a row ## You set the sensitivity and the sanction In /settings, the malicious users detection comes down to two choices: its sensitivity and the sanction applied. Trusted members can be added to the whitelist. ## Why an anti-nuke is a must Discord permissions can’t tell a trusted moderator from an account that was just hacked: both have exactly the same rights. A scanned QR code or a fake login link is enough for a legitimate account to start deleting everything. The anti-nuke judges actions, not roles. A legitimate moderator doesn’t delete ten channels in two minutes. ## Get started Add Orion to your server, then open /settings and adjust the malicious users detection: sensitivity and sanction. ## Frequently asked questions What is a nuke on Discord? A nuke is a Discord server destroyed from the inside by an account with the permissions to do it: channels and roles deleted one after another, members banned or kicked in a row. What should I do if a moderator’s account was hacked? Remove their roles right away, ask the owner to change their password and turn on two-factor authentication, then check the server’s audit log. With Orion’s anti-nuke, the account is stopped as soon as it goes over the action limit. How do I turn on Orion’s anti-nuke? Add Orion to your server, then adjust the malicious users detection in /settings: sensitivity and sanction. ## Orion's other protections [**Moderation** Orion moderates your Discord server day and night: AI against toxic messages and NSFW, anti-spam, automatic sanctions and clear logs.
