Users attempting to access the Engineering News-Record website at www.enr.com are currently encountering a security verification screen that temporarily prevents immediate access to the site's content. The automated security system is conducting human verification checks before allowing users to proceed to the main website.
The verification process displays a message stating "Verifying you are human. This may take a few seconds," indicating that the website's security infrastructure is actively screening incoming traffic. This type of security measure has become increasingly common among professional websites as they work to protect against automated bots and potential cyber threats.
Following the initial verification step, the system conducts an additional security review of each user's connection before granting access. Users see a secondary message explaining that "www.enr.com needs to review the security of your connection before proceeding," demonstrating the multi-layered approach to website protection.
Once the verification process completes successfully, users receive confirmation that the security check has passed. However, the final step requires waiting for the ENR server to respond and load the requested content. The entire process, while adding a brief delay to site access, represents standard cybersecurity protocols used by many professional publications and industry websites to maintain secure operations and protect both user data and website integrity.
