I would use javascript and google’s reCaptcha to achieve this affect.

Although there are PHP solutions if that does not work.

Thanks for your reply .  
But I was asking if there is any Cakephp in built feature .  
Google recaptcha is also third party captcha . I would not be able to use any third party solution .
