CAPTCHA FEATURES IN DETAIL

More protection!

POWER CAPTCHA continuously checks whether access is authorized – whether by humans or bots. Depending on your license, you can adjust the protection behavior of POWER CAPTCHA yourself and thus define the security level and usability factors to protect your forms and login areas. The Enterprise version also offers a 2-factor solution via email for barrier-free access. The no-captcha setting also protects your site without a captcha display. Find out more about the captcha features in detail in our setting examples.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Every interaction with POWER CAPTCHA generates an encrypted code (client footprint), which POWER CAPTCHA evaluates and remembers. For further interactions, we will increase the level of difficulty of the solution, for example, or reject further interactions for a defined period of time. You can find a system description with more details in our free white paper.

How to protect your forms

You can customize the protection of your forms to suit your needs and set the security level yourself. The setting options depend on your POWER CAPTCHA plan. The following examples show some of the possible settings for the Enterprise license.

Example 1: Limit the transmission of data via an IP address / the client footprint:

Example 2: Limit the use of email addresses in 3 stages:

How to protect your login areas

To protect your login areas from unauthorized access, you can set the protection behavior of POWER CAPTCHA (as part of the Enterprise plan) as follows:

Example 1: Limit access via the IP address / client footprint:

Example 2: Limit login attempts via the user name:

Set that e.g. a maximum of two login attempts are allowed within 24 hours per user.
Alternatively, you can limit the number of incorrect password entries per user and hour and allow e.g. a maximum of three incorrect entries.
You can also limit the number of login attempts using a combination of user name and client footprint.

ACCESSIBILITY

Activate the integrated 2-factor solution for barrier-free access to your protected area.

No Captcha Setting

With the No Captcha setting, the data is transmitted and checked in the background, invisible to users. This means that you use the security mechanisms of POWER CAPTCHA (e.g., limiting login attempts per hour) without a captcha image being displayed.

How to use POWER CAPTCHA as a no captcha solution:

Limit the number of permitted requests from users/bots (per website or domain). If the limit you set is exceeded, you can – depending on your strategy – trigger various follow-up actions, e.g.

The open programming allows you to make individual adjustments by your own developers.

For example, you could delay requests (extending the response time of POWER CAPTCHA) or trigger a real-time alert (e.g. via e-mail).

Accessibility

Use POWER CAPTCHA’s e-mail authentication for barrier-free access! Simply click on the button “Access code via e-mail”.

POWER CAPTCHA then sends you an access code via e-mail, which you can enter in the verification mask instead of the captcha solution. Try out the feature in our demo!
