| Summary: | e - Exam is an electroni c resource platform for students to take examination s through online . Since, the process of taking the exam s are executed through internet , therefore s ecurity consideration become vital in e - Exam . D ue to l ack of trust, un secure d platform and cheat ing trial which are commonly happen in e - Exam assessments; hence it makes many e - Exam turns unsuccessful . By taking Nigeria universities as our case study, this research found that a numbers of e - Exam scheme s in th e coun try use a combination of fingerprint biometric authentication and cryptograph y dynamic approaches. Th e s e can guarantee that the e - Exam’s candidate is the right person in a duration taking the exam without a need of any proctor. However, we believe that in taking e - Exam process, the psychological distress of student should also be taking into consideration in the assessment. By integrating those factors, we believe the e - Exam can be more successful and reliable.
