# Global Reputation

> A federated security network shared across the Kaori ecosystem.

## The Power of the Network

Unlike traditional bots that only know what happens in your server, Kaori uses its presence in thousands of communities to create a **Global Reputation Score** for users. When a malicious actor is caught in one server, the entire network learns.

## Reputation Scores

Every user has a trust score based on their history within the Kaori Federation.

### Positive Signals

* **Account Age**: Older, established accounts are given higher initial trust.
* **Community Rep**: Users can give `/rep` to one another for positive interactions.
* **Verified Status**: Accounts with linked socials or successful past verifications.

### Negative Signals

* **Known Raiders**: Users flagged for participating in automated attacks.
* **Global Bans**: Severe infractions that lead to a "Global Ban" will drop reputation to zero.
* **Suspicious Activity**: Rapidly joining many servers or engaging in spam patterns.

## Protecting Your Server

You can use these scores to automate your security:

* **High-Security Mode**: Require a minimum reputation score for users to speak.
* **Auto-Quarantine**: Automatically flag users with low trust scores for manual moderator review.
* **Global Ban Sync**: Enable this to automatically ban any user who is added to the [Kaori Global Ban](https://kaoribot.com/bans) list (reserved for the most severe offenders).

<Info>
  Reputation is not just about bans. It's about **context**. A user with 0 rep in your server might still be trusted because they have 50+ positive reps in other respected communities.
