Interactive video captcha
First Claim
1. A method for providing access control for a computing resource, comprising:
- defining a command and an action corresponding to the command, wherein the action is a physical movement of a user;
defining a minimum requirement of correspondence between the action and a response to the command, wherein the response is in a video format and the correspondence is not based upon a previous pre-recorded response by the user;
receiving a request to access a computing system;
transmitting the command to a computing system from which the request originated;
receiving the response to the command;
comparing the response and the action to determine whether or not the response meets the minimum requirement; and
enabling access to the computing resource if the response meets the minimum requirement.

Abstract
Provided is a Captcha Access Control System (CACS) for generating an improved captcha that are based, in one described embodiment, upon a command in one format and a response in a different format, one or both of which are rendered in a format that is difficult for an automated system to interpret. A computer system or program to which a user is requesting access generates a textual or audible command. A video device captures the user'"'"'s response and transmits the response to a response evaluation device. Based upon an analysis of the transmitted video and a comparison between the analyzed video and the command, the computer or program either enables access or denies access.
