ThreateningYeti VS NSudo

With this new information, I was interested in seeing if this software is as air-tight as Respondus markets it to be. After all, with all these compromises in privacy, it must offer a secure testing environment, right? Well… Researching for “Lockdown Browser bypass tools” lead to me this archived project by TheateningYeti on GitHub. This software is one of many bypass tools authored with the sole purpose of rending Lockdown Browser useless. It should be noted that to avoid accusations of academic dishonesty I will solely be covering this out project, as an example of a bypass tool, as it is outdated and no longer effective. I will not be providing any existing tools nor will do I endorse the use of such software. This project has since been discontinued as, according to ThreateningYeti, “...cat and mouse game has gone too far to publicly release an open-source bypass.”. In other words, this project was not discounted due to it being impossible to create a bypass tool for Lockdown Browser, but rather because the work did not continue as, to ThreateningYeti, the rewards were not worth the effort. Why is this important then? This project is of vital importance as it demonstrates just how ineffective the Lockdown Browser can be and bypass tools are not the only way of mitigating this software either.
