Variable Text Generation: A Novel Technique to Generate

Random Text. Random texts have wide applications in day-to-day
life. The most basic use of random text is in CAPTCHA generation.
CAPTCHA is an abbreviation of Completely Automated
Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart. It is
a test that only humans can pass but current computer systems
cannot. CAPTCHA protects Web services from attack of codes
that are automated to fill forms and overflow the servers or used
for registering fake ids. They may consist of text, or distorted
images containing a text. Text CAPTCHA generally employ
random text generation algorithms which have flaws of quick
repetitions due to low degree of randomness. They sometimes
employ the pseudo random number generation techniques in
which a seed is provided and the next random text or number
generated follows that pattern thus repeats after a fixed interval
of time. In this paper we aim at generating secured random text
sequences for CAPTCHA. Text generated is completely based on
date and time. These texts are unbreakable by normal coding and
by simple users and applies the intellect of changing time to create
completely new sequence whenever a user sends request for a new
text. This algorithm uses the servers date and time to generate
random text which can be used in CAPTCHA generation.
