CAPTCHAS vs. reCAPTCHAS

If you already know what CAPTCHAS are and have refreshed your memory regarding your internet experience with them, surely reCAPTCHAS will also sound familiar to you. What are they and how are they different from the first ones?

The reCAPTCHAS are an evolution of the CAPTCHAS , as it is also a computer resource to verify human intervention in a web interaction process, but in a much simpler way. Making reCAPTCHA consists of pressing a button that says “I am not a robot”. If, after pressing it, the system is not sure that you are not a robot, it will also be accompanied by one of the types of CAPTCHAS that we have discussed.

How were reCAPTCHAS created?

The explanation of its origin is curious. The first reCAPTCHAS that saw the light consisted of a verification process in which the user had to identify words that came from texts that computers did not fully understand and had to be digitized.

In this way, the system fulfilled a double function: to verify that humans and not machines entered the web and, at the same time, to help digitize texts. A project that Google bought in 2009 to digitize its Google Books.

Over time, the technology of reCAPTCHAS evolved and, in December 2014, they already began to limit their verification through the famous click on the button that we all know now.

How was the change made possible?

Google had to make use of a complex system using internal algorithms and a series of signals left by users while browsing: mouse movement, IP address, active cookies and other parameters that are still secret today.
