Examity student profiles not secure.
#11
I talked today with tech support and thanked me for alerting them of the issue, they couldn't see the problem happening on their end and asked me to provide a screenshot when it happens again. I did point out it was a serious issue. It happened twice to me and it was random. I hope they realize how serious this issue is.

Thanks, didn't know that.

They say protect test integrity but then students accounts are there for all to see. LTI even asks for SSN in certain instances so those are made public too. It is not secure Sad

EEK! That's not good at all! I know at WGU you must show the proctor your driver's license which bothers me. Far too much info on it and the info can be used to steal your identity. I feel like Examity had a major security breach last year. Maybe it was the year before. I know it was one of the proctoring services and it left me very UNimpressed. So much for security! 

 I remember reading an article about Examity, and dismissing out of hand any school that used them.
Hard to avoid for language proficiency testing. Since I am done with it I removed my personal info from their website. But they have more personal info stored on the exam profile.

Apparently examity had privacy issues with students data back in Apr 2020. I am asking them to remove all my personal data from their profile.
