Abstract
CAPTCHA is an acronym for Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Human and Computer Apart. The main purpose of CAPTCHA is to differentiate between human and automated machine during online transaction. Text, image, audio and video are types of CAPTCHAs. However, text-based CAPTCHAs are available in the market in different languages i.e., English, Arabic, Urdu and Chinese but accented character-based text CAPTCHA system namely NAIJACAPTCHA is a newly introduce text-based CAPTCHA developed using Latin characters and accented characters from two Nigerian language: Yorùbá and Igbo. The usability of sixteen accented character-based CAPTCHAs was tested to see if they were suitable for human usage. The usability performance was measured using response time, solving time, accuracy, and success rate. A total of two hundred and twenty-two participants were selected for the study, and 1108 CAPTCHA codes were generated. The response time for Text Distortion with Coloured Background was the fastest, with 1.18×103 ms, while Coloured Texts with No Background (CTNB) had the least response time of 1.09 ms. With a solving time of 2.52×104 ms, Character Fragmentation with No Background was the fastest. The result showed that CTBN's response and problem-solving time is highly promising; as a result, its website application for authentication during online transactions to distinguish between humans and machines will be simple for human beings to solve and user requests will also be swiftly attended to. Lastly, the security aspect of the developed NAIJACAPTCHA will be looked into determine its vulnerability.
