Remote exam invigilation solution
TrustTest by COSAC is a trusted remote invigilation exam solution that enables secure, compliant online exams on any device, including mobile phone – without the need for test centres. Seamlessly integrated with your LMS, it makes remote assessment simple, reliable and scalable.
What is remote invigilation?
Remote invigilation, or remote proctoring, refers to the practice of overseeing and supervising assessments from a remote location using technology. A remote invigilation exam is an online invigilated examination taken from a non-test-centre location, typically at home. Supervision is done virtually by a human invigilator in exams or online invigilation software (sometimes a combination of both), using the candidate’s webcam, microphone and screen-sharing to ensure integrity throughout the session. TrustTest by COSAC employs record and review proctoring, enabling candidates to complete their online exam at their own convenience on any device.
How do remote proctored exams work?
A remote proctored exam begins with system checks, including AI-assisted identity verification. After a successful room scan, the candidate is recorded taking their online invigilated exam and is monitored via webcam, microphone, and screen-sharing by a human invigilator using record and review proctoring. The system tracks eye movement, screen switching, and ambient noise to flag suspicious behaviour for review by our experienced, UK-based team.

Customer Comments
What is online exam invigilation software?
Online exam invigilation software is a solution that securely supervises exams taken remotely. It verifies candidate identity and monitors behaviour through live human invigilation, enabling organisations to deliver online assessments with confidence while maintaining consistent standards, security, and compliance.
How does remote exam invigilation work?
Remote exam invigilation works by monitoring candidates through their webcam, microphone and screen during an online exam. Online invigilation software confirms identity, tracks behaviour and records evidence throughout the assessment. This approach ensures exams remain secure and fair, regardless of candidate location.
Can the proctor see my screen?
Yes. For an online invigilated examination, the online exam invigilator has a live view of your screen. This is a crucial function of the remote invigilation software to ensure exam integrity, as it allows the invigilator to monitor for unauthorised screen switching or the use of prohibited applications throughout the session.
Can the online proctored exam detect a phone?
Yes. As part of the online exam invigilation process, proctors/invigilators conduct pre-checks of the environment via webcam to look for unauthorised items like phones. Furthermore, the remote exam invigilation includes audio analysis to detect conversations or suspicious whispers, use of additional devices or notes.
Is online invigilation software secure?
Yes, online invigilation software is secure when delivered through established exam invigilation software platforms. Systems use encrypted data, continuous monitoring and detailed audit trails. This makes remote exam invigilation suitable for regulated and high-stakes assessments that require reliable evidence and oversight.
Can exam invigilation software prevent cheating?
Exam invigilation software helps maintain exam integrity by monitoring for unusual behaviour and preventing unauthorised activity. Our solution uses live human invigilation to flag risks, ensuring accurate and reliable oversight while allowing assessments to be completed securely and remotely.
Who should use remote exam invigilation services?
Remote exam invigilation services are ideal for educational institutions, professional training providers, certification bodies, and corporate organisations that need to conduct secure, reliable assessments remotely. They ensure exam integrity, support compliance requirements, and provide a scalable solution for monitoring candidates without the need for physical exam venues.
Why choose online exam invigilation instead of test centres?
Online exam invigilation offers a flexible and cost-effective alternative to test centres. Candidates can take assessments remotely, while live human invigilation ensures security and compliance. This approach reduces venue and travel costs, allows faster scheduling, and provides consistent monitoring standards, making it suitable for organisations of any size.
What devices can be used for candidate tests?
TrustTest is built with flexibility in mind. Candidates can complete their online exam on a desktop, laptop, tablet, or mobile phone – allowing them to test in a way that fits their environment and preferences. This user-first approach ensures a smooth experience without compromising the integrity, security, or reliability of the assessment.
Can the exam structure and invigilation rules be customised?
Yes. Exam structure and invigilation protocols are fully configurable to meet customer requirements, allowing organisations to apply the right level of control and oversight without compromising test integrity.
How much do remote exam invigilation services typically cost?
Remote exam invigilation services are priced on a bespoke basis, with costs determined by your specific requirements. Pricing depends on factors such as invigilation level, security, candidate numbers and support, and a free demo and consultation are available to discuss suitable options.
