What is Honorlock?
Honorlock is a Google Chrome extension designed to proctor digital tests and exams. The specifics depend on what options your instructor chooses, but generally it records your test-taking space and CCP ID, prevents opening websites other than the exam, and records your screen and webcam. The extension must be installed in your Chrome web browser to function.
