Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for a sentence based automated Turing test for detecting scripted computing attacks. A computing may request access to a service or data from a service provider, where the service provider may be required to determine that the device is used by a user and not a bot executing a scripted or automated process/attack against the service provider. To authenticate that the device is used by a user, the service provider may determine and output a challenge that queries the user to fill in one or more missing words from a sentence. Acceptable answers may be based on past messages and internal data that is specific to the service provider, as well as an external corpus of documents. The service provider may also further authenticate the user based on the user's response and a likely user response for that user.
