| Abstract | In this decade, digital transactions have risen exponentially demanding more reliable and secure authentication systems. CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing Test to tell Computers and Humans Apart) system plays a major role in these systems. These CAPTCHAs are available in character sequence, picture-based, and audio-based formats. It is very essential that these CAPTCHAs should be able to differentiate a computer program from a human precisely. This work tests the strength of text-based CAPTCHAs by breaking them using an algorithm built on CNN (Convolution Neural Network) and RNN (Recurrent Neural Network). The algorithm is designed in such a way as an attempt to break the security features designers have included in the CAPTCHAs to make them hard to be cracked by machines. This algorithm is tested against the synthetic dataset generated in accordance with the schemes used in popular websites. The experiment results exhibit that the model has shown a considerable performance against both the synthetic and real-world CAPTCHAs. |
