Roughly half of all web traffic is not human (Cloudflare bot traffic research). For assessment and certification, the automated share concentrates exactly where money moves: question banks, live exams, and identity checks..

## How do bots attack online assessment?

Question banks are worth real money, and automation harvests them faster than publishers can rewrite.

### Harvested banks

Scraper bots walk your item pool and resell it on answer sites within days.

### Automated test-takers

Answer services use scripted sessions to complete exams at scale.

### Fake identities

Bot-created accounts bypass weak identity checks before exams even start.

## How does ExamFence work?

Three steps between automated traffic and your business.

01 - EVALUATE

### Watch session behavior

Rendering, navigation, and timing signals score every exam session silently, with no lockdown browser required.

02 - CLASSIFY

### Flag automation

Bulk harvesting patterns and scripted answer behavior are separated from genuine test-takers, including accessibility tooling.

03 - FILTER

### Protect in real time

Scrapers are tarpitted, automated sessions flagged for review, and item exposure tracked question by question.

## What changes when the bots are gone?

Clean traffic compounds.

* Question banks stop leaking to answer sites
* Item-level exposure reports for publishers
* FERPA-friendly design: no student PII leaves your stack
* No extra software for test-takers to install

## Frequently asked questions

### What is ExamFence?

ExamFence is a bot-protection and integrity service for online assessment. It blocks question-bank harvesting, detects automated test-taking, and reports item-level exposure, all without a lockdown browser.

### Does ExamFence affect accessibility?

No. Detection is behavioral and distinguishes assistive technology from automation. Test-takers using screen readers and other tools test normally.

### How does it stop question harvesting?

Scraper sessions are identified by navigation and rendering patterns, then tarpitted or blocked. Harvesting that took days becomes economically pointless.

### What data does ExamFence collect?

Session behavior and technical signals only. No student PII leaves your environment, which keeps deployments FERPA-friendly.

### Can it detect answer services during live exams?

Yes. Scripted answer patterns, inhuman timing, and session anomalies are flagged in real time and routed to your integrity team with evidence.

### How fast can we deploy?

Most platforms are protected within days through an edge or snippet integration, with no changes to your exam delivery flow.
