Secure Online Exam Experience with Safe Exam Browser

Safe Exam Browser is a specialized web browser designed to facilitate secure online examinations. It features two primary components: a kiosk mode that restricts access to other applications and a streamlined browser interface. The kiosk mode effectively locks the Mac, preventing interactions with other software, thereby minimizing the risk of cheating during exams. Key functionalities such as force quit, right-clicking, and the use of secondary monitors are disabled to maintain integrity.

The browser component utilizes the Mozilla Gecko engine to load the examination content through a specified URL, ensuring a focused testing environment. With essential navigation elements like the address bar and bookmarks removed, users are directed solely to the exam. Safe Exam Browser is a free tool that enhances the security of online assessments, making it an essential resource for educational institutions.
