White Paper
Web Patrol enables you to detect test content being shared online and offers assistance in mitigating any damage resulting from a security breach.
Web Patrol helps determine the who, what, where, and why of a security breach.
It is common for live exam content to be shared online, often within days of being published. If you’re not monitoring the web because you don’t think your content is out there, you may need to reevaluate. We help you find evidence and take action.
Understanding the websites and social servers that are illicitly sharing your content online is the first step in combating the problem. Every program is different. Web Patrol® knows where to search for yours.
Clues in recovered content can help identify the examinees who used content shared online to get a higher score. Experienced web patrollers interpret those clues, enabling you to take appropriate action.
Ignoring a problem will never make it go away. A content breach can be difficult, but expert web patrolling assistance can reveal the scope of the threat and dramatically mitigate resulting damage.
Web Patrol results can help you pinpoint proxies (professionals for hire who take tests for others), as well as the candidates who employ them.
Caveon Web Patrol leverages technology, tools, and human expertise to identify, prioritize, and monitor online locations—social media, websites, discussion forums, peer-to-peer servers, etc.—where sensitive test information may be disclosed or at risk of disclosure.

Given the increasingly digital world in which we operate, web patrol is a vital tool for anyone charged with protecting the integrity of high stakes exams. When PMI was selecting a vendor, we focused on two main criteria. First, we wanted a company that had expertise in test security, not just online IP protection. Second, we wanted a team that wouldn’t simply present their results but would also actively partner with us to find and implement proper solutions. Caveon has more than exceeded PMI’s expectations on both of those criteria and has given us the peace of mind to know that our intellectual property is protected from threats that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to discover.
There's 4 simple reasons you can trust Caveon for all your Data Forensics needs:
Caveon doesn’t just automate the search for your valuable intellectual property. We put real people on the job, deploying an experienced and dedicated team of web analysts to scour the web for your IP.
The internet knows no barriers to language or geography. Caveon provides international scope and foreign language expertise, ensuring your content can be located no matter where it’s shared on the web.
The landscape of the web changes daily—so we do, too. As the world’s only company dedicated entirely to test security, we continually evolve and improve our web patrolling efforts.
Your Web Patrol results are delivered to you through your Caveon Core dashboard, allowing you to monitor potential threats at a glance, track resolve rates, prioritize incidents, and determine exposure trends.
