How to Stay Undetected During Online Proctored Tests
· 3 min read
Staying undetected during online proctored tests requires understanding what monitoring software can and cannot see. Most detection happens through screen capture, process monitoring, and browser-level tracking.
Proctoring software monitors three surfaces: screen content (via capture APIs), browser activity (via extensions), and system processes (via activity monitors). To remain undetected, any external resource must be invisible on all three surfaces. LDBypass achieves this on macOS by using system-level window APIs that exclude its overlay from screen capture, keeping no visible entries in standard process lists, and operating independently of the browser. The overlay is toggled with Ctrl+Cmd+L and supports adjustable transparency.
