And the answer to last week's trivia: TRUE. CAPTCHA tops WebAIM's list of problem items for screen reader users, by a wide margin, and respondents with disabilities were twice as likely to flag it. A form some humans can't get through is a broken form. testomato.com/blog/form-test…

Humans v bots round 2. This one's about who gets locked out. Answer in the comments.

Every recipe has a key ingredient that holds the dish together. For your website, that's your content. Our guide covers how to monitor your content, from plain text checks to XPath expressions. See if your monitoring is missing any key ingredients: testomato.com/blog/website-c…

And the answer from our last trivia question: it's TRUE. Across CAPTCHA types, bots hit 85–100% accuracy; humans managed 50–85%. If your form's only defense is a puzzle, the bots are passing it, faster, and your visitors are the ones failing or straight up abandoning the form.

Incident Insights: Last month, a traffic peak overloaded GitHub's Central US load balancers, and retries made it worse. Several services were degraded for almost 8 hours. Monitor the services you depend on yourself.

We just raised the limits on every paid plan! Same price with more domains, checks, and team seats. Business trades unlimited domains/status pages for fixed caps. Enterprise stays unchanged and unlimited in everything. Check the details: testomato.com/blog/higher-pl…

Content Security Policy allowlists go stale like anything else. New vulnerabilities and bypasses are discovered. Requirements change! Ideally, everyone would use a strict policy, but in reality the majority of sites do not even implement a policy at all.

When they do have a CSP, many sites weaken it with unsafe-inline, leaving them exposed to cross site scripting (XSS). Any policy is better than none, but for non-specialists it can be hard to build a strong one from scratch.

If you don’t have a CSP and aren’t sure where to start, try our free CSP Generator. Use the presets to generate a fresh policy or better yet let the tool crawl your site and build one directly from the resources that your site loads. testomato.com/tools/csp-gene…

New series: Incident Insights — overviews on real outages. First up: Namecheap's RadiusDC data center outage on August 13, which took hosting, DNS management, and support offline for over 30 hours. Monitor your own uptime so you're alerted right away the moment things go down.

Another SSL question this week. Answer in the comments.

Another SSL truth. SSL was formally deprecated back in 2015. The certificate itself supports either protocol — it just proves who you are — but the actual encryption on your site's connections today is in almost all cases done by TLS, not SSL. testomato.com/ssl-monitoring…

And the answer from our last trivia question: this one's true. The cap fell from 398 days to 200 in March 2026, and it drops to 47 by 2029. At that rate, nobody is tracking certificate expiry from memory: testomato.com/ssl-monitoring…
