Background of Security Verification
Japan Times has implemented a security service to protect its website from malicious bots. When a user accesses the site, a page appears to confirm that the visitor is not a bot.
Impact on User Experience
The displayed message reads "Performing security verification" or "This website uses a security service to protect against malicious bots," informing users that verification is underway. Until verification completes, the user cannot reach the normal page.
Specific Procedure
When a user opens the page in a browser, the verification starts automatically. Upon successful verification, the site redirects the user to the regular content.
