Location-Based CAPTCHA: Enhancing Bot Detection Using Live Geolocation Autofill
This paper introduces a novel CAPTCHA system that leverages live geolocation to autofill addresses and detect bots. Current CAPTCHA systems, though effective, can be bypassed by sophisticated bots. Our method capitalizes on the fact that bots cannot simulate real-time location data. We analyze the feasibility, security, and user experience of integrating geolocation into CAPTCHA systems, offering a new method of bot detection. Initial results indicate a reduction in false positives and improved security with minimal user inconvenience.
