SilentShield is an invisible, GDPR-compliant CAPTCHA alternative engineered for privacy. It sets no cookies, tracks no one across websites and builds no profiles, verifying users through behavioral analysis and a proof-of-work nonce. Every plan hosts data in the EU by default and meets WCAG 2.1 AA. A single API key protects your site, with an Agent Gateway for legitimate AI agents.

Security Practices

Hosting in Germany

The check of your visitors runs on our servers in Germany, and the data is stored there — via the EU endpoint directly, with no CDN in between. We deliver the website and dashboard via Cloudflare (see Privacy Policy).

End-to-End Encryption

All data in transit and at rest is protected with AES-256 encryption. Communication between your site and our API uses TLS 1.3.

Built for data minimization

SilentShield sets no cookies and builds no profiles. The IP address is used only for the check and is not stored in plain text; with Zero-PII Mode, browser and device characteristics are dropped as well.

Regular Penetration Testing

Independent security firms conduct regular penetration tests and vulnerability assessments to ensure our infrastructure remains secure.

DDoS Protection

Enterprise-grade DDoS mitigation protects both our infrastructure and your integration endpoints from volumetric and application-layer attacks.

Secure Development Lifecycle

Every code change undergoes security review, automated SAST/DAST scanning, and follows OWASP best practices throughout development.

Compliance

GDPR Compliant

Ready for GDPR-compliant use, with a data processing agreement (DPA). No consent banner required for SilentShield integration.

WCAG 2.1 Accessible

Our invisible approach means zero accessibility barriers. No CAPTCHAs, no puzzles, no challenges that exclude users with disabilities.

No Cookies Required

SilentShield operates without setting any cookies or using browser storage, eliminating the need for cookie consent prompts.

No Third-Party Data Sharing

Your visitors' data is neither sold nor shared with third parties for advertising or analytics purposes. We do not participate in any data exchange networks.
