Abstract

With the explosion of Internet-based technologies like online examination system, a lot of manual tasks have been automated, thereby saving time and effort. But deployment of such automated system has made the process more vulnerable to various risks, such as confidentiality loss, intrusion of critical data, and impersonation. In this paper, we proposed an online exam system using multi-factor authentication that allows instructors to set exams for different subjects via an integrated high text editor. Students can take exams after code-based verification and biometric authentication. It automates the process of exam scheduling, grading, and reporting, thereby reducing the workload of the instructors. A survey has been conducted to prove the efficacy of the system in terms of reliability, scalability, and availability.
