New York, NY – September 30, 2024 – Proctortrack by Verificient celebrates October’s 21st Annual Cybersecurity Awareness Month with an unwavering dedication to data privacy and security with their innovative SPADE Dashboard (Student Privacy and Data Expunge) offering.
The SPADE Dashboard is a data privacy and transparency tool that is designed to provide :
- The data information and disclosures for test-takers
- Information on all the test sessions attempted using Proctortrack, the volume of data collected, and the data deletion date.
- GDPR and FAQs concerning privacy
SPADE enhances student transparency throughout ID verification, remote proctoring, and the post-examination data lifecycle. Users can track the storage of their ID verification, approval, and processing to maintain test integrity. SPADE Dashboard allows users to monitor when their data is expunged from servers. Additionally, students can effortlessly request administrators at their institution to delete data with a simple click of a button.
In 2020, Verificient Technologies Inc. developed a unique awareness program called #CyberSecuritySmart for internal and external users of Proctortrack, emphasizing the critical role of digital security in our interconnected world. It serves as a reminder for businesses and individuals to prioritize safeguarding sensitive information.
Keeping in line with #CyberSecuritySmart, Proctortrack has always been proactive in its privacy and security-centric approach by meeting the following security and data compliance programs:
- USA: SOC2 Type 2, FERPA, and ADA Certifications
- Canada: PIPEDA and FIPPA Certifications
- Europe: GDPR and Privacy Shield Certifications
- Global: ISO-27001 Certification
“Test-takers must have confidence in the security of their data, and to overcome concerns about data lifecycle awareness and transparency, we introduce SPADE, the ‘Student Privacy and Data Expunge’ Dashboard. SPADE serves as our tool to educate test-takers on how Proctortrack secures and respects the privacy of their data during and after collection for test integrity purposes. In a world where daily data threats are prevalent, we encourage test-takers and administrators to maintain #CyberecureSmart throughout the year,” says Rahul Siddharth.
