The lab version of LockDown Browser is not for use on individual devices and should not be used by individual users.
LockDown Browser® is a custom browser that locks down the testing environment within a learning management system. It prevents access to external resources, applications, and websites during assessments. This software helps maintain the integrity of online exams by providing a controlled and secure testing environment.
If you’re doing anything technical, think Mathematica–not just for computation, but for modeling, simulation, visualization, development, documentation, and deployment. Why Mathematica? Because this one integrated system delivers unprecedented workflow, coherence, reliability, and innovation. Rather than different toolkits for different jobs, Mathematica has been built ground-up over nearly 20 years to deliver one vision: the ultimate technical application and environment.
