The shift to computer-based mandated testing creates new privacy concerns in the testing environment. As more states adopt digital testing platforms in schools, the risk among students for cheating rises.

• During the 2014-2015 school year, roughly 5 million students across 10 states and the District of Columbia adopted new state mandated tests*
• Nearly 81% of students took the exams on a computer or other technology device
• Temptation for students to cheat is high, especially on high-stakes testing
• 64% of students admit to cheating on a test**

New technology for improving privacy in the test-taking environment.
