A simple Fabric mod to help secure your Minecraft server by blocking incoming connections unless they come from TCPShield proxies.<\/p>\n

### Features
\n– **No Config Needed**: The mod automatically fetches TCPShield proxy ranges.
\n– **Blocks Early**: Unauthorized connections are blocked at the handshake packet.
\n– **Just works**: Just drop it in and it’s good to go.<\/p>\n

### How It Works
\nThe mod pulls TCPShield proxy ranges when your server starts and blocks any incoming traffic that doesn’t come from these proxies at the handshake packet. <\/p>\n

### Important Note
\nI’m not affiliated with TCPShield; this is just a passion project to help keep servers secure. I made it because I needed something like it and couldn’t find a good option.<\/p>\n

### Support
\nFor any issues or questions, please open a GitHub issue on the GitHub page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
