Security Enabled Acoustic Based Assessment System is a desktop application that establishes a secure evaluation scheme for the benefit of both the institutional organizations and the students. This site is an attempt to remove the existing flaws in the current assessment systems and it would help not only visually challenged people but also physically impaired candidates to attend the test by automatic question dictation feature and the automatic answer recognition feature. Institutes enter on the site the questions they want in the exam. The questions are completely randomized and thus security is maintained. Fernet Key is used for the encryption of the questions that will appear on screen. Face detection is used for the user authentication and then the live monitoring is done until the candidate completes the exam and thus anti-cheating/anti-fraud mechanisms is ensured. Students can take exams and acquire their results as soon as they complete the exams. Online Tests save more time for evaluation. It also saves paper which is an issue in the past few years. The answers entered by the students are then evaluated and their score is calculated and saved. This score then can be accessed by the institutes to determine the passed-out students or to evaluate their performance.
