Announcing the General Availability of CAPTCHA for Azure Web Application Firewall (WAF) with Azure Front Door.
Modern web applications face evolving threats, including bots, web scrapers, and brute-force attacks, many of which can bypass traditional security controls like IP blocking and rate limiting. CAPTCHA provides an adaptive layer of protection, ensuring legitimate users can access applications while blocking harmful automated traffic.
This new security feature enhances bot mitigation strategies by introducing an interactive challenge that verifies human users in real time, helping organizations protect their applications from automated attacks.
