Secure Browser: Configuring Safe Exam Browser for Windows, MacOS, or iOS

Modified on Thu, 21 Nov, 2024 at 9:00 AM

On devices running Windows, macOS, or iOS, assignments with the Secure Browser feature turned on must be opened in Safe Exam Browser.

Safe Exam Browser is a web browser application for safely administering e-assessments. The software temporarily turns any computer into a secure workstation, controlling access to resources like system functions, websites, and applications during an exam.

For the purpose of administering Pathways assessments, Safe Exam Browser must be installed on all devices prior to testing.

To download Safe Exam Browser, follow this link:  https://safeexambrowser.org/download_en.html. After the download is complete, open the file, and Safe Exam Browser will automatically install on the device. When the installment is successfully completed, any Pathways assignment with Secure Exam Browser selected on the assignment page will automatically run through Safe Exam Browser.
