Worldwide Computer Products News-18 May 2009-D-Link adds CAPTCHA technology to home routers(C)1995-2009 M2 COMMUNICATIONS http://www.m2.com
Networking solutions provider D-Link has become the first company to add CAPTCHA to its home routers, providing an extra level of security for its users.
CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart) is a challenge response test which ensures that a response is not computer-generated and instead entered by human hand.
D-Link said that by integrating CAPTCHA into its home and small office routers as an extra safety measure, it is addressing the recent increase in Internet security attacks on computers through Trojan horses that are downloaded unknowingly by Internet users. These Trojan horses then attack the router and alter their DNS records to divert all traffic through a target network. By incorporating CAPTCHA testing, the company’s routers are better equipped against attacks from worms and viruses, protecting users when accessing the Internet.
The new feature is currently available on D-Link’s DIR-685 Wireless N Storage Router. The following router models are also planned to incorporate this feature: DIR-615, DIR-635, DIR-655, DIR-825 and DIR-855.
No financial or pricing details were disclosed.
