# CAPTCHA

CAPTCHA is an acronym for Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart. Use this widget to protect your website from spam and abuse. CAPTCHA is a test that users fill out before submitting a form.

The CAPTCHA widget does not come out-of-the box with ASP.NET Core form widgets.

If you want to use one on your form, you can implement a custom CAPTCHA widget, based of Google reCAPTCHA.

To do this, follow procedure [Create a custom CAPTCHA Forms widget](https://www.progress.com/documentation/sitefinity-cms/create-a-custom-captcha-widget).
