Chandigarh,5th December 2024 Edutest Solutions, a pioneer in the examination business with four decades of experience, has achieved a significant milestone by successfully conducting an industry-first computer-based test (CBT) with end-to-end encryption. This ground-breaking innovation, executed flawlessly for 1.2 lakh candidates, addresses the long-standing challenges of conventional CBT examinations and sets a new benchmark for secure and reliable digital assessments.
The exam was conducted over three days from Saturday through Monday. To administer the exam smoothly, Edutest had developed a proprietary software consisting of a combination of innovative technological features including no software installation, automated seat allocation, and end to end encryption.
The edtech company’s examination platform has been designed to eliminate the need for software installation on devices, significantly reducing the risk of hacking or unauthorized access. An automated, randomized seat allocation system eliminates human intervention, ensuring fairness and transparency. For enhanced security, question papers are securely encrypted from creation to delivery, ensuring that their integrity remains intact throughout the process. Further, a centralized control hub oversees the entire examination process, offering real-time monitoring and rapid response to any irregularities.
Commenting on the development, Jaya Arya, Managing Director, Edutest Solutions, said, “As the reliance on CBT for examinations continues to grow, our platform is poised to play a crucial role in securing the future of digital assessments. Its innovative solutions promise not only to transform the landscape of secure examinations but also to inspire confidence among institutions, candidates, and stakeholders alike.
Vineet Arya, Director, Edutest Solutions, said, “By addressing all the weaknesses of traditional CBT systems, we have set a new standard for digital assessments. This platform guarantees that exam results reflect merit rather than manipulation, restoring trust in the examination process. It ensures that exams are conducted seamlessly across pan-India centres, including remote locations, while maintaining the highest levels of security and reliability.”
