8.4 Configuring CAPTCHA

Self Service Password Reset supports reCAPTCHA version 3 and invisible reCAPTCHA. Prior versions of reCAPTCHA still work. CAPTCHA provides advanced security protection for the Self Service Password Reset websites. CAPTCHA prevents an automated attack and ensures that humans are logging in to applications, not computers. For more information, see Google reCAPTCHA.

Self Service Password Reset uses the online reCAPTCHA service for CAPTCHA generation and validation. You must configure a reCAPTCHA account to use this service. Registration at the reCAPTCHA site provides a public and private key that you must use to configure Self Service Password Reset for the reCAPTCHA support.
