Discord Security Comparison

Xattix vs Beemo: anti-impersonation meets anti-raid.

Beemo is the well-known userbot raid detector for Discord, designed to catch large coordinated attack waves at the gate. Xattix solves a different and slower problem: a single believable account pretending to be one of your trusted staff. Public servers usually run both.

Different timescalesBeemo catches raids in seconds. Xattix catches social engineering over hours.
Different signalsBeemo watches join bursts; Xattix watches identity.

Where Beemo is the right tool

Three workloads where Beemo remains the standard.

Large public servers

If you have an open invite and a public landing page, you will see raid waves. Beemo’s pattern detection is built for that.

Drama-prone communities

Servers tied to high-profile creators or controversies are raid magnets. Beemo’s burst thresholds catch coordinated attacks fast.

Servers with no portal-style entry

If you cannot route entry through OAuth + access codes, Beemo is the right defence at the open gate.

Where Beemo leaves you exposed

The slow attack surface Beemo was not built to defend.

One believable lookalike

Raids are loud; a single fake admin is quiet. Beemo’s burst thresholds will not flag a single account that looks like one of your moderators.

Long-running social engineering

Scammers often warm up an account for days before DMing your members. There is no “raid” signal — just slow trust building.

Cross-server scammer recidivism

Beemo has no shared blacklist between communities. Xattix flags accounts already burned in other Xattix-protected servers.

How they work together

Run them in parallel. Each owns a clearly different attack surface.

Beemo handles raid waves

  • Burst joins from coordinated userbot pools.
  • Pattern-matched username signatures.
  • Lockdown automation during active raids.
  • Open-invite hardening.

Xattix handles identity attacks

  • Names, avatars, and bios that copy protected staff.
  • Cross-server scammer reputation.
  • Identity-Bound Join Portal for high-trust entry.
  • Roleless cleanup with consent for stale members.

Frequently asked questions

What server owners ask before adding Xattix to a Beemo-protected server.

If I have Beemo, do I still need Xattix?

If your community has trusted staff, signal callers, or paid roles that scammers might copy, yes. Beemo catches raids; Xattix catches the slower one-account impersonation attack.

Will Xattix block raids?

Indirectly. The Identity-Bound Join Portal removes the open invite entirely, which sharply reduces userbot staging. For burst raids on public servers, keep Beemo at the gate.

Will it duplicate Beemo’s alerts?

No. Beemo alerts on raid bursts; Xattix alerts on identity scoring. They use separate channels and never both kick the same member.

Keep Beemo. Add the identity layer.

Xattix complements Beemo by covering slower, smarter, single-account impersonation attacks. Setup takes about a minute.
