1 New Features and Improvements
This month, in addition to some bug fixes and user navigation improvements, we're launching a fresh set of anti-cheat tools.
1.1 Anti-Cheat Tools
Candidates are more resourceful than ever, and that makes it harder to get a clear picture of their true abilities. It’s important to have accurate, trustworthy assessment results to guide hiring decisions. That’s why we developed a new suite of anti-cheat measures.
Clients on the Growth and Scale packages will now have access to a new set of Anti-Cheat Tools. The tier includes preventive features such as: closing open tabs, and blocking the opening of new tabs, enforcing single-screen use, disabling printing, downloads, right-click, clearing cache, and additionally requires assessments to be taken in full-screen mode.
These protections create a more controlled testing environment, which ultimately leads to more authentic, reliable results.

1.2 Practice Typing Question Enhancement within Test Instructions
Resolved an issue where candidates could unintentionally start an assessment directly from the practice typing question within the Instruction page with an implementation of an improvement to the practice typing question flow – now the interface will only show the ‘End practice’ option, returning candidates to the Instruction page and preventing accidental test starts.
1.3 New Gear Icon in Assessment Settings
Implemented an improvement by adding a gear icon to Assessment Settings, providing a visual cue to help users notice and access the settings more easily.
