ActiveHashcash 0.4.0

ActiveHashcash protects Rails applications against bots and brute force attacks without annoying humans. This new version brings two important features:

1. Increase complexity automatically
2. Add mountable dashboard

Increasing the complexity automatically is a better way to slow down brute force attacks. The more an IP address spends Hashcash stamps, the harder it becomes to solve them.

The mountable dashboard allows to monitor spent stamps and IP addresses that are sending most of them. Finally, it gives an idea on who and how many times sensitive forms have been submitted.
