Sify Technologies enhances iTest platform with Remote Proctoring Solution from TALVIEW
Chennai, India, June 29, 2020:Β Sify Technologies LimitedΒ (NASDAQ: SIFY), Indiaβs most comprehensive ICT solutions provider with global service capabilities spanning domestic and international Telecom Networks, Data Centers, Cloud, Applications, Managed Services, and Systems integration, announced their partnership withΒ Talview, an AI-enabled Talent Assessment technology provider, to integrate Remote Proctoring Solutions with its iTest platform. This integration with Talviewβs proctoring solution, Proview, will ensure authentic invigilation of online assessments held remotely.
Sifyβs iTest is a platform providing end-to-end admission, recruitment & assessment engine. iTest has the capability of providing a safe & secure testing environment in both LAN-based and internet-based settings. In just the last year, iTest has hosted approximately 4 million assessments online.
Talviewβs Proctoring Solution, Proview, will enable iTest with powerful features such as live and automated remote proctoring that uses AI-powered facial recognition to detect impersonation, browser policing, real-time alerts, activity log to inspect suspicious activities, and more.
“Outbreak of COVID-19 has given a definitive surge to the online examination software market and has increased the need for advanced proctoring solutions. Remote proctoring offers a series of advantages over the traditional online examination method. Our iTest platform will come equipped with this AI-based proctoring solution to ensure the quality and integrity of exams and candidates during the remote examination. With this integration, iTest can now create a biometric record of the candidate, track their movements across multiple browser windows and for every session, and flag other suspicious activities like copy-paste in real-time. The solution is designed to work in a low bandwidth environment making it the perfect solution for the current situation,” saidΒ Kamal Nath, Chief Executive Officer, Sify Technologies Limited.
With the integration of iTest and Proview, examiners can now benefit from various advanced features:
The AI-enabledΒ online proctoring solution, available in automated modeΒ monitors suspicious activity using advanced video and audio analytics. It ensures the candidate focuses only on the test screen; monitors the light and other factors in the room; checks for suspicious actions & objects and background voice activity; and watches the browser window to detect changes. Adding to the automated module is theΒ LiveΒ remote proctored solution that deploys trained resources in conjunction with the automated proctoring to offer a solution that gives an exam body the confidence to deliver exams in a remote manner.
The exam administrator can alsoΒ monitor the online testΒ from their preferred locations. A detailed log of browser activity and audio-visual responses of the candidate is provided, and the AI sensors disable the candidatesβ facility to copy/paste answers. Real-time access restriction ensures the examiner can take action immediately if a candidate is using any fraudulent means. Real-time recording of usersβ actions facilitates secure and authentic online tests. The recorded streams can be stored and viewed for up to six months.
The proctoring solution comes with advancedΒ facial recognitionΒ features that ensure that the candidate is the original person taking the exam. Using an advanced algorithm in Machine Learning, it provides a confidence score to help ensure a match, and Two-Factor Authentication process that avoids fraudulent activity by quickly restricting test access.
Along with automated proctoring, facial recognition, and live monitoring, the solution also provides analytics on user behavior and user actions. It also offers browser patrolling and real-time communication via ChatBot and configurable alerts to avoid fraudulent activities during tests.
Commenting on this partnership,Β Sanjoe Jose, CEO, Talview,Β said,Β “Sify is a pioneer in the online assessments market and we are glad to be partnering with a player who has in-depth knowledge of the existing demand.
