Project Report 2010 Examination Question Paper Leakage Protection Mechanism

ABSTRACT

The idea behind this project is to protect the leakage of question papers before the
examination and also to maintain the security of the answer papers until they reach the
centre for evaluation. An electronic box is made in which the exam papers will be placed,
and can be opened only at the exact time of examination after the cross checking of the
password. Updates are displayed in the box regarding the time left for the exam to fmish.

Once the exam is completed, the answer papers are resealed inside the box and are
removed out only during the time of correction, and thus preventing the answer papers
being tampered. If anyone tries to open the box before the stipulated time, then a siren is
blown and it is set in memory which can later be checked at the centre. Thus, the project
works towards the protection of the examination papers and provides a fair competition
through the exam.
