Respondus Lockdown Browser is Now Available in Blackboard Ultra

Respondus Lockdown Browser is available for instructors in Blackboard Ultra for the 2023-2024 academic year.

Respondus Lockdown Browser is a custom browser that locks down the testing environment within a learning management system and is used at over 2000 educational institutions. When enabled in assessments, it prevents students from accessing other applications and functions that are not relevant to their examination. This includes messaging, screen-sharing/capturing, remote desktops, copying/pasting, and right-click functions.
