Identity verification for online exams
Confirm who is taking the exam as part of any webcam-based proctoring: participants show an accepted document to the camera, and it is checked by a live proctor during the exam or in the session review afterwards. The exam provider sets which documents are accepted.

Identity verification isn't a separate product — it's a checkpoint every webcam-based exam runs through before the exam itself starts, whether a live proctor is watching or the session is reviewed afterwards. The participant presents an accepted document to the camera. With live proctoring, the proctor checks it during the exam; with AI proctoring, it is checked in the session review afterwards.
What counts as an accepted document isn't fixed platform-wide — ID cards, passports, driver's licences and residence permits are the default set, but the exam provider decides what to require for a given exam. A university running low-stakes practice tests might accept anything with a photo; a certification body issuing a professional licence might restrict it to a government-issued ID only. That configuration travels with the exam, not with the participant, so the same person can face different document rules depending on which exam they're sitting.
