Get exam papers to printers and centers, with access only when it's needed.
Exam authorities, universities and professional bodies send papers to reviewers, printers and exam centers, and a leak can force a re-sit. In DekkoCORE, reviewers read papers at View only, printers download only during the print window, and any copy that turns up later can be checked against the original.

Why exam papers are hard to protect
Papers pass through setters, reviewers, printers and centers before exam day. A single leaked copy can force a re-sit for every candidate.

Questions
Can we limit a printer's access to the print window?
Yes. Share with the printer when printing starts and set access to end when the window closes. You can also remove it at any time.
Can reviewers download papers?
Not with View only. They read papers in the browser.
Does Region protection block access from other countries?
It's an IP-based allow-list for each Hub, a first line of defense alongside sign-in. Someone using a VPN can appear to be somewhere else, so it doesn't replace careful sharing.
How do we check a leaked copy?
Add it to DekkoSecure's file validator. A match shows where it came from, and a copy that's been changed won't match.
Where are papers stored?
DekkoCORE is hosted in-country, in Australia, the United States or Canada.
