About Cutcaptcha
Cutcaptcha is a puzzle-based CAPTCHA where the user has to complete a shattered image before accessing a website. Cutcaptcha is common on file-sharing or download websites, where it prevents unauthorized file downloads or uploads. However, you can also encounter it on ecommerce sites, or social media.
How Cutcaptcha Works
Cutcaptcha presents a shattered image (with missing parts) to the user, prompting them to drag and drop its broken pieces to their matching positions to make a complete image. The CAPTCHA requires strict attention to detail. Since even humans get stuck with Cutcaptcha sometimes due to its complexity, it's practically impossible for bots to solve.
Detection Techniques Used by Cutcaptcha
Cutcaptcha uses a puzzle-based CAPTCHA detection method to identify automated bots. It randomizes its images so the user gets a different CAPTCHA per request. Only a legitimate user can interact with the Cutcaptcha puzzle and solve it. Automated programs like web scrapers will get blocked because they can't handle the CAPTCHA's dynamism.
Cutcaptcha: Types of CAPTCHAs
Cutcaptcha strictly uses interactive CAPTCHAS and doesn't feature any background JavaScript challenge. It comes up every time you visit a website it protects. The puzzle aims to make the CAPTCHA-solving task less friendly to stop bots from accessing a protected website.
How to Solve Cutcaptcha CAPTCHAs
Solving the Cutcaptcha requires interacting with the puzzles, making it difficult for bots to handle. The CAPTCHA can block you while scraping assets such as image or video files.
