Myra EU CAPTCHA: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Myra EU CAPTCHA is a bot-protection service from Myra Security GmbH that lets websites protect forms and logins without puzzles or checkboxes. Verification runs invisibly in the background, using client-side JavaScript analysis and cryptographic calculations. According to Myra, it uses no HTTP cookies or persistent browser storage, and no personal data is stored. Integration means adding two HTML snippets, one in the page header and one in the protected form; ready-made plugins and SDKs exist for common platforms and frameworks. The service is delivered as a hosted cloud service.

Myra Security GmbH is a German company headquartered in Munich. It lists ISO 27001 (based on BSI IT-Grundschutz), BSI C5 Type 2 and PCI DSS among its certifications. On request, assessments are processed exclusively through dedicated endpoints in Germany or the EU, and a data processing agreement is required before use. A self-hosted variant is not described. For European organisations, this is a service from an EU-based provider whose data processing can be confined to the EU.
