An overview of Cloudflare Turnstile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Turnstile is a CAPTCHA alternative developed by Cloudflare<\/a>. The tool is designed to confirm the authenticity of a web visitor without requiring any interaction on the user\u2019s end:<\/p>\n\n\n

You\u2019re probably already familiar with how CAPTCHAs<\/a> work. Typically, you\u2019ll need to tick a box or solve a puzzle to confirm that you\u2019re not a robot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Turnstile runs these checks in the background, minimizing interference to the user experience. It uses a selection of non-intrusive challenges that are carried out in the visitor\u2019s browser. This means that users won\u2019t need to do anything on their end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turnstile will only ask a user to check a box if it is unable to confirm their authenticity through the browser. However, as we shall see in the tutorial, you have the option to disable this feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, Cloudflare uses Apple\u2019s Private Access Tokens to run these browser tests. This can help ensure that no extra data is collected in the process, keeping users safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, Turnstile can help you keep bots out while preserving your site\u2019s User Experience (UX)<\/a>. Later in the post, we\u2019ll take a closer look at the benefits of using Turnstile over other CAPTCHA solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n
