The LMS Integration Challenge
Educational institutions invest heavily in Learning Management Systems like Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle. These platforms become central to institutional operations, housing grades, assignments, and student communications.
Exam security should not require abandoning these existing systems. It should integrate seamlessly.
