Secure Exam Proctor is a tool created to increase accessibility to test-takers worldwide. It enables you to take exams remotely while protecting the value of your online degree/certifications. Here are some important things to keep in mind when using Secure Exam Proctor on your assessments:

Your information is completely safe - Any information collected during your assessment is encrypted with AES 256-bit encryption before it leaves your computer, meaning it cannot used until unlocked by an institution-approved representative.
No personal information is sold - Our privacy design means Secure Exam Proctor can’t see personal info, therefore there is nothing for us to sell to third parties.

The following permissions may be required to add the Secure Exam Proctor extension:

Read and Change Data on Websites: This permission does not mean the extension will read or change anything on the websites you visit. When enabled by your administrator, it allows the recording of tabs open during an exam.

Financial and Payment Information: Secure Exam Proctor does not directly collect financial or payment information from test-takers. This permission is required in order for our third-party payment processor to manage any fees for exams.

Capture Screen Content: If your exam requires it, Secure Exam Proctor can record your screen. This option is set solely by your exam administrators and/or institution, not by Secure Exam Proctor. Your browser will ask for permission to share your screen every time it is needed, and you can manually end screen recording at any time.

User reviews

I would give it 0 stars if I could. Proctorio very rarely works the way it should. It causes exams to crash because it takes up a lot of energy. I even upgraded my laptop to a gaming laptop, which should work better, but Proctorio still causes crashes. It makes taking exams very frustrating, and often times doubles or triples the amount of time the exam takes. For example, I had one semester where I had to take a 10 question quiz every week and it was always proctored with Proctorio. The exam itself would take maybe 5-15 minutes for me to do. With Proctorio, it took closer to 30-45 minutes because the extension wouldn't work.
