    • Even more opportunities to provide protection from spam on Joomla.

      Even more opportunities to provide protection from spam on Joomla.

      CleanTalk is a SaaS spam protection service for Web-sites. CleanTalk uses protection methods which are invisible for site visitors. Connecting to the service eliminates needs for CAPTCHA, questions and answers and other methods of protection, complicating the exchange of information on the site.

      Many don’t think about the importance of reliable spam protection. But, it’s something we all must face. Yes, eliminating spam attacks takes time, and valuable resources. However, not providing such protections looks bad in the eyes of clients. And, it can lead to a loss of reputation.

      Just think what would be done to owners of Joomla web sites, if spam attacks mislead clients, directing them to malicious websites. Intruders add loads of malicious content to web sites and there is no time to eliminate it. Spambots are the problem for every website on the Internet and CleanTalk is meant to get rid of such situations. CleanTalk is a preventative system of spambots protection, invisible to the website visitors and providing 100% efficiency.

      CleanTalk Company is happy to announce to all Joomla users, that they have launched the newest version of anti-spam plugin.

      In the new version, CleanTalk is able to employ the spam protection mechanism for free forms (contacts, comments, registrations). Before, CleanTalk could only provide protection for the most popular or standard forms. The employment of protection for the new forms took time and complicated the development. Considering the great number of plugins, it seemed impossible to create protection for each one separately.

      The new plugin mechanism enables support to various forms of different authors. The idea is for the plugin to monitor actions on websites and every time there’s a registration or a new comment, CleanTalk estimated the parameters of the form filling and the visitor’s behavior. The service checks these parameters for signs of spambots and makes decisions, whether it’s a person or a spambot. The spambot protection for free forms is set via the plugin settings.

      CleanTalk sends a weekly report of all activity. It lets you access a record of each (trans)action, at any given moment. Users can also see the dynamics of spam attacks and useful comments. With the help of a mobile app, you can control and receive information about registrations/comments directly to your mobile device (available for iPad/iPhone and Android).

      Considering the amount of comment and registration plugins that are susceptible to spam attacks, by one means or another, CleanTalk becomes an important tool in provision of spam protection, and which is necessary for companies to keep in their arsenal.

      Forums and blogs without spam

      CleanTalk is a SaaS spam protection service for Web-sites. CleanTalk uses protection methods which are invisible for site visitors.
