ORGANIZATIONS WHO TRUST US TO PROTECT THEIR EXAMS
WHY PATROL THE WEB?
Web Patrol helps determine the who, what, where, and why of a security breach.
DETERMINE ITEM EXPOSURE
Is any test content exposed online?
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.
LOCATE THREATS
Where can you find your content online?
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.
INTERPRET EVIDENCE
Who may have stolen or used your content?
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.
TAKE ACTION
How can you limit the damage of a security breach?
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.
PROXIES
Are proxy test takers infiltrating your program and skewing scores?
Web Patrol results can help you pinpoint proxies (professionals for hire who take tests for others), as well as the candidates who employ them.

“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.”

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.
