        abstract = {Online examinations and assessments have become essential and important in today’s education system; however, they face some critical challenges like lack of security, integrity issues and high chance of cheating. Most existing systems depend on centralized platforms, which can be easily manipulated, hacked and tampered with, leading to major concerns for secure online exams. CryptoProctor is a blockchain-based secured online proctoring system that uses a decentralized platform and ensures data integrity, trust, transparency and security for online examinations. The proposed system uses blockchain for storing examination logs and proctoring evidence, while IPFS is used for efficient file storage. The proposed method provides a solution for traditional systems by enhancing the security for examinations by preventing unauthorized access and recording every change made. This makes CryptoProctor a perfect solution for conducting secure online examinations in today’s modern education systems.},
