BotDetect.Web.Mvc ASP.NET CAPTCHA Reference
The BotDetect.Web.Mvc namespace encapsulates BotDetect types specific to ASP.NET MVC Captcha implementations. It's separated from the main BotDetect assembly into BotDetect.Web.Mvc.dll so referencing BotDetect doesn't cause a dependency on ASP.NET MVC (unless BotDetect.Web.Mvc.dll is also referenced).
BotDetect.Web.Mvc.MvcCaptcha Class Reference
A BotDetect Captcha control variant used for ASP.NET MVC applications.

ASP.NET MVC CAPTCHA FAQ
ASP.NET MVC Version Compatibility
I'm trying to add BotDetect to my ASP.NET MVC application, but I'm getting "Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference." errors when I try to run it. Your component seems to be referencing an older version of ASP.NET MVC, which is not installed on my system.
Read the answer...
ASP.NET MVC No Captcha Code Model Field
Your ASP.NET MVC integration instructions start by adding a CaptchaCode field to a Model class, which conflicts with our requirements. Can we add BotDetect Captcha protection to a Controller action without adding any fields to the Model declarations?
Read the answer...
ASP.NET MVC Resource-Based Error Message Localization
How do I use localized Captcha validation error messages from ASP.NET MVC application resources? If I use [CaptchaValidation("Captcha", "RegistrationCaptcha", Resources.Error.CaptchaMismatch)], I get "An attribute argument must be a constant expression, typeof expression or array creation expression of an attribute parameter type" errors.

MVC CAPTCHA in Java
JSF CAPTCHA
JSF CAPTCHA Integration How To Guide
Protecting your JSF forms with BotDetect Java Captcha requires a few steps. To find out about each of them, follow the links given bellow:
JSF Basic CAPTCHA Example
This code example shows the most basic source code required to protect a JavaServer Faces form with BotDetect CAPTCHA and validate the user input.
It can be used as a starting point when you are first learning how to use BotDetect.
The JSF Basic CAPTCHA Examples are included in examples folder of the download package as bdc4-jsf20-basic-captcha-example.war and bdc4-jsf12-basic-captcha-example.war files. Deploying (unpacking) the file will create a standard JSP directory tree.

JSF Facelets CAPTCHA Example
This code example shows how to protect a JavaServer Faces form with Facelets presentation technology using BotDetect CAPTCHA and validate the user input.
The JSF Facelets CAPTCHA Examples are included in examples folder of the download package as bdc4-jsf20-facelets-captcha-example.war and bdc4-jsf12-facelets-captcha-example.war files. Deploying (unpacking) the file will create a standard JSP directory tree.

JSF Login Form CAPTCHA Example
This code example shows how to add BotDetect CAPTCHA protection to a typical JavaServer Faces login form.
To prevent bots from trying to guess the login info by brute force submission of a large number of common values, the visitor first has to prove they are human (by solving the CAPTCHA), and only then is their username and password submission checked against the authentication data store.
Also, if they enter an invalid username + password combination three times, they have to solve the CAPTCHA again. This prevents attempts in which the attacker would first solve the CAPTCHA themselves, and then let a bot brute-force the authentication info.
The JSF Login Form CAPTCHA Examples are included in examples folder of the download package as bdc4-jsf20-login-form-captcha-example.war and bdc4-jsf12-login-form-captcha-example.war files. Deploying (unpacking) the file will create a standard JSP directory tree.

MVC CAPTCHA in PHP
CakePHP MVC CAPTCHA
CakePHP MVC CAPTCHA How To Guide
Adding BotDetect PHP Captcha protection to your CakePHP MVC applications requires a slightly different approach than adding it to basic PHP websites, but is still straightforward. This page will guide you through the necessary steps and explain the available options.
CakePHP MVC CAPTCHA Basic Example
This example illustrates the most basic form of BotDetect PHP Captcha protection in CakePHP MVC applications.
Alongside the Captcha image, the user is provided with an input field to retype the displayed characters. Depending on if the Captcha code entered matches the displayed one or not, a message stating the validation result is shown on the form.
The simple code showing the message in this example would of course be replaced with useful form processing code in a real world scenario.
This example shows how to integrate BotDetect PHP Captcha validation and CakePHP data validation functionality. It uses Cake's FormHelper and Model validation, which provide a lot of out-the-box functionality when used together.
The example is based around a contact form which sends email if the user input is considered valid – a likely real world scenario for Captcha protection integration.
To keep the example brief, it doesn't use a database backend. Still, this type of Model integration is ideal for protecting database-driven forms that take advantage of the CakePHP Model infrastructure.
CakePHP MVC CAPTCHA Auth Example
This example demonstrates how to integrate BotDetect PHP Captcha into login and register forms in a scenario where CakePHP Auth Component is used to authenticate users to your application.
The example is based around a login form and a registration form which authenticate users and add new users if the user input is considered valid – a likely real world scenario for Captcha protection integration.

This example shows how to integrate BotDetect PHP Captcha validation and CodeIgniter form validation functionality. It uses the CodeIgniter Form helper and the Form Validation library.
The brief example is based around a contact form which sends email if the user input is considered valid – a likely real world scenario for Captcha protection integration.
CodeIgniter MVC CAPTCHA Bit Auth Example
This example demonstrates how to integrate BotDetect PHP Captcha into login and register forms in a scenario where Bit Auth library is used to authenticate users to your application.
The example is based around a Login form and an Add New form which authenticate users and add new users if the user input is considered valid – a likely real world scenario for Captcha protection integration.
CodeIgniter MVC CAPTCHA Ion Auth Example
This example demonstrates how to integrate BotDetect PHP Captcha into Login and Forgot Password forms in a scenario where Ion Auth library is used to authenticate users to your application.
The example is based around a Login form and a Forget Password form which authenticate users and sends email if the user input is considered valid – a likely real world scenario for Captcha protection integration.
CodeIgniter MVC CAPTCHA Tank Auth Example
This example demonstrates how to integrate BotDetect PHP Captcha into Login, Register, Forget Password and Send Again forms in a scenario where Tank Auth library is used to authenticate users to your application.
