Assessment Lock

Assessment Lock is a secure web browser environment tailored for educational institutions to deliver summative e-assessments safely. Built upon the powerful, open-source foundation of the official Safe Exam Browser (SEB) for iOS, this custom application restricts access to system utilities, external apps, and unauthorized websites during high-stakes exams. By leveraging Apple’s Automatic Assessment Configuration (AAC) framework, the app locks the iPad into a secure kiosk mode directly from an assessment link or configuration file. Key Features: * Absolute Lockdown: Prevents task-switching, notifications, split-screen viewing, and unauthorized internet navigation during active testing sessions. * Official SEB Compatibility: Seamlessly reads encrypted .seb configuration files and QR codes generated for traditional Safe Exam Browser deployments. * Zero-Distraction Interface: Launches directly into your institution's pre-configured assessment portal without address bars, search fields, or open browsing capabilities. * Flexible Exit Controls: Automatically ends assessment mode upon exam completion, with invigilator quit-password support for early exits or technical interventions. Note: This application requires an institution-specific exam link or configuration to activate assessment mode. It is designed specifically for managed deployment via Apple School Manager.
