Months

Development time saved by architecting the Proctor360 integration correctly

The Challenge

Canonical needed a remote exam platform as secure as a physical test center for their global Ubuntu certification program. The platform had to verify candidate identity, prevent cheating via secondary screens or phones, and integrate a third-party AI proctoring tool without disrupting the exam experience.

The Solution

Led development of the secure exam environment at academy.canonical.com. Engineered the integration between Canonical's backend and Proctor360's AI proctoring SDK — including the secure handshake, session management, real-time flag processing, and automated certificate issuance on pass.

What we built

Proctor360 AI integration

Secure handshake, ID verification, environment checks, and real-time suspicious activity signals.

Session integrity management

Exam state persisted across Node.js backend even if proctoring connection drops.

Automated certification

Instant grading and certificate issuance on successful API validation from proctoring service.

Browser lockdown

Focus detection warns candidates attempting tab switches before the proctored session begins.
