Security

Hi everyone, We’re excited for today’s launch on Product Hunt. Bots now outnumber human beings online and have officially taken over the internet. What does this mean for websites and advertisers? We’ve noticed that all CAPTCHA service providers operate in the same way, deriving their viability from their ability to extract data from internet users. As bots using AI and machine learning techniques become increasingly sophisticated in their attack methods, the need for maintaining online privacy and security has never been more critical. Alarmingly, some CAPTCHA service providers have exploited this situation by using bot attacks as a pretext to justify invasive data harvesting practices, masquerading these efforts as security measures. At adCAPTCHA, we are serious about stopping bots. We are the only service provider in the market that does not charge our customers for blocking bot attacks. It’s our belief that if a CAPTCHA service is profiting from stopping bots, why would they want the attacks to cease? Where’s the incentive? And if bots serve as a justification for the need to collect data from your customers, why would these providers want to prevent bot attacks? We have taken a different approach. We give you the tools to secure your site and use the attention and engagement with your customer to serve content. This means we have no incentive to harvest data from internet users or welcome bots back to your site. We want them gone forever. We charge you, the customer, for keeping them out and for serving content to your customers. Our model only incurs costs for genuine human users who engage with the media content, reflecting our commitment to economic viability without monetising privacy data, tracking internet users, or relying on training data that could inadvertently teach bots how to bypass security measures. Such practices are not only flawed but are also becoming increasingly exploitable due to the wider accessibility of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. Our patent-pending technology disrupts this cycle by creating unique challenges from a single piece of media, making it impossible for bots to leverage previous interactions for future breaches. This dual-purpose system not only protects user privacy but also combats major online threats: advertising fraud and spam attacks. By ensuring authentic user engagement, we address the £84 billion lost to ad fraud and protect websites from the adverse effects of spam bots. By leveraging the constant influx and variety of media, we can disrupt automated attacks while providing websites with a unique opportunity to capitalise on the engagement and attention of their traffic. This opens avenues for co-marketing or self-promotion, further benefiting website operators by transforming security measures into marketing opportunities. adCAPTCHA is redefining the standards for internet security and privacy. Leading the fight against ad fraud and spam without compromising privacy, we're committed to creating a safer, more authentic online environment. Our approach avoids the pitfalls of monetising privacy and instead fosters a platform where security measures empower innovative marketing strategies. Thank you for supporting our mission to provide a privacy-first solution in this ever-evolving digital landscape.
