Comprehensive Application Monitoring and Control for Lockdown Assessments

YuJa Verity will now provide complete visibility and control over applications during lockdown assessments through a redesigned approach that offers flexible security options:

  • Default Application Blocking: All applications are blocked by default, eliminating the need for manual configuration

Expanded Third-Party Assessment Integration Support

YuJa Verity will significantly expand its third-party assessment capabilities, adding support for multiple new platforms to provide institutions with comprehensive proctoring options across diverse academic disciplines. All integrations support both Extension and Lockdown proctoring methods, maintaining consistent security protocols while streamlining the testing workflow for both instructors and test-takers:

Automated Flagging for ID and Face Verification Mismatches

AI-powered identity verification will now automatically create flags when there’s a mismatch between a test-taker’s face and their submitted ID document. The system will handle different verification scenarios intelligently, creating flags when switching from AI to manual verification in bypass mode or when mismatches are detected during automated processing.

Website Access Controls Will Now Apply to Mobile Assessments

Website access restrictions will now function consistently across all YuJa Verity platforms, including the Mobile Lockdown App. Mobile test-takers will be automatically redirected when attempting to navigate to non-approved URLs, maintaining the same level of security whether they take assessments on desktop or mobile devices.

Proctor Group Options Now Reflect Institution-Level Availability

The Live Session Setup will now automatically disable the “Proctoring Group” option for institutions that don’t have access to YuJa proctors, and guide instructors toward available proctoring options to ensure they can only select services active for their institutional setup.
