Server Backups & Disaster Recovery

Human error, malicious bot compromises, or rogue administrators can devastate months of channel structuring and permission calibration. MyProtect’s Backup & Disaster Recovery Engine gives server owners complete peace of mind through encrypted, point-in-time snapshots.

What Gets Backed Up

MyProtect snapshots the complete logical topology of your Discord server:
  • Roles & Permissions: Full role hierarchy, display colors, hoist states, and granular permission bitfields.
  • Channels & Categories: Text, voice, forum, and announcement channels, organized with exact parent-child relations and topic strings.
  • Permission Overwrites: Every custom channel overwrite for specific roles and individual members.
  • Server Metadata: Guild icon, splash, banner, AFK channel/timeout, verification tier, and system channel pointers.
In accordance with Discord Privacy Policies and GDPR standards, message history and member files are never included in structural backups. Only server configuration structures are preserved.

Automated Backup Schedules

Through the Next.js Web Dashboard, administrators can configure Automated Backups:
  • Daily Snapshots: Captures server state every 24 hours (retaining the last 7 daily points).
  • Weekly Archives: Persistent recovery points maintained for 30 days.
  • Pre-Update Guard: Automatic snapshot created whenever significant channel or role modifications are performed through DAC v2.
