Abstract :
Electronic exam systems are pieces of software employed in online educations to assess performances of students. However, both the security of the protocols they reply upon and a general understanding of the possible threats is still to be met. This manuscript outlines a Ph.D. research work wherein we attempt to shed some light in the area. We identify the phases composing a typical exam system, we comments on relevant security properties that should be preserved in the various phases, and we advances an informal though structured definitions of them.
