About SEB

Safe Exam Browser (SEB)

Safe Exam Browser (SEB) is a secure browser for the conduction of online-exams held on Learning Management Systems (LMS). SEB enforces a so-called "kiosk-mode" witch prevents the use of unauthorized software during the exam.

Start the SEB

Upon start of SEB all not-authorized applications are hidden and cannot be used during the exam. Further will SEB's own webbrowser take up the full screen and will display the startpage configured in the exam.

Exit the SEB

In order to close SEB click on the Quit-Button or press Cmd-Q. Depending on the exam, SEB might only be closed by entering a password given by the exam staff. Upon closing of the SEB, applications which have been hidden by SEB will return to the desktop.
