Abstract :
In the digital era, government websites serve as
critical platforms for citizens to access essential services,
information, and resources. However, with the increasing
threat of cyber attacks and data breaches, ensuring the
security of these websites is paramount. This research paper
explores the implementation of CAPTCHA (Completely
Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and
Humans Apart) as a mechanism to enhance web security on
government websites. CAPTCHA is a widely adopted
security measure designed to distinguish between human
users and automated bots, thereby mitigating various forms
of cyber threats such as brute force attacks, credential
stuffing, and unauthorized access. This paper examines the
effectiveness of CAPTCHA in safeguarding government
websites, including its impact on user experience,
accessibility, and usability. Furthermore, it explores various
implementation strategies, best practices, and potential
challenges associated with deploying CAPTCHA on
government platforms. Through a comprehensive analysis of
existing literature, case studies, and empirical data, this
paper provides insights into the role of CAPTCHA in
bolstering web security for government websites and offers
recommendations for policymakers, web developers, and
security professionals.
