Description
LockDown Browser® is a specialized web browser designed to secure the testing environment within an educational management system. Employed by more than 2,000 institutions of higher learning, this software is considered the "gold standard" for ensuring the integrity of online examinations in both classroom and proctored settings. The name LockDown Browser reflects its primary function: it effectively "locks down" the browser on a computer or tablet, preventing students from copying, printing, or accessing other applications or websites while taking an online test. Additionally, LockDown Browser is equipped to thwart numerous common and sophisticated cheating techniques, including the use of Virtual Machines, remote desktop connections, screen sharing, instant messaging, screen recording, keystroke shortcuts, launching applications with timers or alerts, and exploiting browser cache, among various other methods. This comprehensive approach to exam security helps maintain the credibility of online assessments and promotes academic honesty among students.
Description
Respondus Monitor® enhances the functionality of LockDown Browser by utilizing a student's webcam alongside top-tier video analytics to deter cheating during unproctored examinations. It stands out as a highly affordable and student-centric online proctoring solution. This fully automated system captures and assesses student exam sessions through webcam recordings. With its sophisticated computer vision and analytical technology, it offers one of the most advanced automated proctoring systems available. The Review Priority feature categorizes results by risk level, enabling instructors to identify which sessions need further investigation. Central to Respondus Monitor is a robust engine that conducts a meticulous second-by-second review of the exam process. The initial layer leverages computer vision techniques that assess facial recognition, movement, and lighting conditions to evaluate both the student and their testing environment. Following that, additional data from the student's device—such as keyboard usage, mouse activity, and hardware modifications—are analyzed to detect patterns and irregularities that may indicate dishonest behavior. This dual-layer approach ensures comprehensive monitoring, reinforcing the integrity of the examination process.
