## Описание

**Puzzle Gate** is a next-generation WordPress security plugin that replaces annoying
traditional CAPTCHAs with an **intelligent, interactive puzzle system**. Unlike 
conventional image/text CAPTCHAs that rely on external services and frustrate users,
Puzzle Gate offers a fast, self-hosted solution that’s both highly secure and surprisingly
user-friendly.

### **Why Website Owners Choose Puzzle Gate:**

**Blocks Automated Login Attacks** — Advanced puzzle logic stops bots before they
can even attempt authentication
 **Zero External Dependencies** — No Google services,
no tracking, complete privacy compliance **Lightning Fast** — Adds just 200ms to
your login page load time **Mobile-First Design** — Works perfectly on all devices
without compromising security **GDPR/Privacy Compliant** — No external API calls,
no user data sharing **Accessibility Focused** — Screen reader compatible with alternative
input methods

### **How It Works (The Smart Way):**

 1. **Interactive Puzzle Challenge** — Users arrange randomized symbols into logical
    order
 2. **Server-Side Validation** — Each puzzle is uniquely generated and hashed for maximum
    security
 3. **Automatic Bot Blocking** — Failed attempts trigger puzzle regeneration
 4. **Seamless Login Experience** — Humans solve it in seconds, bots can’t crack it

Puzzle data is generated server-side, hashed securely, and expires automatically
to prevent replay attacks.

### **Features**

### Core Security

 * Drag-and-drop puzzle CAPTCHA system
 * Server-side validation with WordPress salts
 * Automatic puzzle expiration (configurable)
 * Brute-force attack protection
 * Nonce-based replay attack prevention

### Administration & Control

 * Simple settings panel in WordPress admin
 * Adjustable puzzle difficulty (4-12 symbols)
 * IP whitelisting capabilities
 * Failed attempt threshold configuration

### User Experience

 * Fully responsive design
 * Mobile-optimized interface
 * Keyboard navigation support
 * Screen reader compatibility
 * Visual feedback for interactions

### Technical Excellence

 * 100% self-hosted solution
 * No external API dependencies

 * Compatible with most security plugins

### Admin Configuration

Puzzle Gate includes a settings page where administrators can:

 * Enable or disable the puzzle CAPTCHA
 * Set puzzle difficulty (number of symbols)
 * Enable the puzzle only after X failed login attempts
 * Whitelist trusted IP addresses

### Documentation

## Часто задаваемые вопросы

### Will this slow down my login page?

No. The puzzle is lightweight and optimized to load quickly.

### Can bots solve this puzzle?

The puzzle logic, nonce binding, expiration, and hashing make automated solving 
extremely difficult.

### What happens if a user fails the puzzle?

The puzzle is regenerated and must be solved again before login is allowed.

### Does it work on mobile devices?

Yes. The puzzle is fully responsive and automatically switches to a dropdown-based
interface on mobile devices.
