CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart) is a security feature that helps prevent automated bots from accessing your laboratory data. With this feature, you can ensure that only real human users are able to access your data, helping to protect it from unauthorized access.
LabCollector offers CAPTCHA as an optional security feature. When enabled, users will be required to complete a CAPTCHA challenge before accessing their account. The challenge may involve identifying objects in an image, solving a puzzle, or answering a question that only a human would be able to answer.
For example, if an unauthorized user is attempting to access your laboratory data using an automated bot, CAPTCHA can prevent them from gaining access. By requiring users to complete a challenge that is difficult for bots to solve but relatively easy for humans.
Please refer to sub-chapter 3.1.1 for more details on how to set-up CAPTCHAs.
