Proctoring Pro for Moodle
The Proctoring Plugin Pro is a quizaccess plugin for Moodle, designed to capture images of users via their webcam during quiz attempts. It verifies user identities and monitors suspicious activities, such as copying/pasting, opening the console, resizing the screen, or switching tabs. The plugin automatically captures webcam snapshots every 30 seconds (which can be adjusted dynamically), saving them as PNG files and logging any suspicious behavior with timestamps. Administrators can review the images after exams for verification using AWS Face Rekognition or the BS Face Matching API.
