# Proctoring with Rosalyn ### 👁‍🗨 About Rosalyn [Synap](https://synap.ac) has partnered with [Rosalyn](https://www.rosalyn.ai/), an innovative online proctoring solution which provides a highly secure, seamless experience for candidates sitting high-stakes exams. Rosalyn combines powerful AI analysis with a 'human-in-the-loop' approach to ensure that suspicious activity can be quickly identified, with a trained human proctor being involved in the final decision-making process. We have chosen Rosalyn as our primary proctoring partner because of this approach - which combines the best of both worlds in terms of AI + Human review - as well as their industry-leading candidate experience and data protection policies. {% embed url="" %} ### ⚙️ Getting Rosalyn enabled You may have noticed by default Rosalyn is not enabled on your portal, this is because we need to set up some credentials and give you access to an additional Rosalyn domain. The set up can take 2-4 working days once we've sent you some more information about pricing based on your plan, and set up steps. Just get in touch with support via the chat and one of our proctoring experts will get back to you to start the process.

The Rosalyn application uses the same rendering engine as Google Chrome, but it has additional 'lockdown' features such as enforcing full-screen and making sure that the candidate does not have any other applications open during the exam process. In Lockdown-Only mode, no footage will be recorded, and nothing will be reviewed - it is just for ensuring that the candidate takes an exam in a locked-down application that restricts access to other materials. This mode would be suitable for low to medium-stakes exams, or for high-stakes exams conducted in an assessment centre where you have your own invigilators available. {% embed url="" %} Review a Rosalyn Live exam {% endembed %} Check out our guide below for steps to create a Rosalyn Lock-down exam ⬇️ {% content-ref url="proctoring-with-rosalyn/rosalyn-lock-down-exam" %} [rosalyn-lock-down-exam](https://academy.synap.ac/doc/exams/proctoring/proctoring-with-rosalyn/rosalyn-lock-down-exam) {% endcontent-ref %} #### 2. 🔐 + 🎥 Live Proctored Mode This mode uses all of the lockdown functionality described above, but it will also record the candidate's Webcam (Video + Audio) as well as their screen. The footage is monitored in real-time by AI algorithms which are able to detect signs of suspicious behaviour. However, what makes Rosalyn unique is that the AI itself does not make any decisions - instead it is used as a screening mechanism, and if suspicious behaviour is flagged, it immediately alerts one of Rosalyn's trained human proctors (who are available 24/7), who will then access the exam session and intervene if necessary. Interventions can take the form of the proctor pausing a candidate's exam and messaging them to ask them to correct their behaviour, or in extreme circumstances, terminating an exam session. At the end of an exam session, the footage is processed and your team are invited to make a final decision on the available exam sessions.
