大部分的CAPTCHA是設計來防止自動登入盜用、大量垃圾信及自動註冊等攻擊,然而基於文字及圖像的CAPTCHA並不適用於行動裝置。文字型CAPTCHA有過多的雜訊及變形、在小螢幕上相對難以辨識,而圖像型CAPTCHA則需要大量手勢操控來放大移動該圖像、這實在惱人。在本論文中,我們提出一個新穎的、基於加速器的CAPTCHA系統並做出以下貢獻: 一、使用簡單的加速器取代複雜的輸入裝置來做水平及垂直的操控; 二、提出一個不依於文化及語言的CAPTCHA系統; 三、在不增加使用者的困擾下加強CAPTCHA的安全性; 四、此CAPTCHA乃基於進階的人類認知能力(遊戲解謎)。
Most CAPTCHAs are designed to defense bots-logon to exploit, the massive spam and registration attacks. However, both text-based and imaged-based challenges which are not suitable for mobile devices. Text-based CAPTCHAs with too much noises and distortions are relatively hard for recognition on tiny screens while the image-based CAPTCHAs require massive gestures to enlarge and swipe the images will add annoyance to users. In this paper we propose a novel accelerometer-based CAPTCHA scheme with the contributions: (1) uses simple accelerometer as input of horizontal and vertical movement instead of complex keyboard inputs (2) is culture/language independent (3) enhances the security without annoying users (4) is based on more advanced human cognitive capabilities.
