WebAssign Online Tests Made Simple and Secure

Securexam® Browser for WebAssign is a security application that prevents your students from accessing unauthorized information from their computers. The Securexam Browser creates a secure test environment by locking down the Windows operating system on the test-taker's laptop or desktop computer, only allowing access to the WebAssign test.

Giving tests, quizzes, and exams on the Internet has never been this easy or secure. With Securexam Browser, your students cannot access any application or any files on their computers while taking a WebAssign test.

  • No Instant Messaging
  • No emailing
  • No surfing the Web
  • No peeking at electronic cheat sheets
  • No printing test questions

Now you can assure your students that no one can cheat on your online tests. It's only fair to your whole class to eliminate the risk of cheating by a few students taking a WebAssign test.

With Securexam Browser and WebAssign's advanced features, you can do the following:
  • Schedule any WebAssign assignment as a secure test, quiz or exam.
  • Integrate any instructor's file on WebAssign, such as an html page, gif, or equation sheet, within the test while maintaining a cheat-proof platform.
  • Password protect your test and change the password as often as you need
  • Decide which computers can access the test using WebAssign's IP restrictions
  • Control how much time your students will have using WebAssign's count-down timer
  • Know that students can only access the secure test and no other assignments in WebAssign.

To ensure total compliance, WebAssign recommends that all online tests be proctored.

WebAssign's Securexam Browser is offered at the lowest price anywhere. You may use it for as many quizzes and tests as you like for the duration of a class. The cost is only $3 per semester or $2 per quarter ($2 per year for high schools) for each student listed on your class roster. You are billed after you sign up for Securexam Browser for your class the first time. You can purchase Securexam Browser either from the Course Edit page or when you Schedule a test or quiz, see below.

Securexam Browser operates on a PC running Microsoft Windows 98, 98 Se, ME, 2000, NT 4.0 or XP and requires Microsoft Internet Explorer. The software must be installed on the computer and opened before logging into WebAssign and accessing the online test.
