The Importance of Security in Online Exams
As education moves digital, the necessity for uncompromising exam integrity grows exponentially. Standard browser-based tests are often trivially bypassed by students toggling tabs or using dual-monitor setups.
1. Real-time Monitoring
Test Spy solves this by implementing rigorous environment tracking, tab-focus detection, and constant websocket heartbeats.
2. Robust Infrastructure
