<![CDATA[ Online exams typically rely on proctoring systems that utilize external hardware—such as cameras and microphones—for monitoring purposes. While effective at supervising examinees, this approach requires additional hardware, increases computational resource demands, and raises concerns regarding user privacy. This study aims to develop a web-based English Proficiency Test (EPT) system that implements real-time behavior monitoring as an alternative proctoring mechanism, eliminating the need for video or audio recording devices. The system was developed using the Waterfall model within the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) framework and incorporates Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to manage user access rights based on specific roles. The monitoring mechanism employs an event-driven approach—utilizing browser event listeners—to detect activities such as tab switching, window focus changes, exiting full-screen mode, and connection status changes, all of which are recorded in an activity log in real-time. Implementation results demonstrate that the system maintains stable performance under testing loads. The study indicates that a real-time behavior monitoring approach serves as a viable alternative to traditional online proctoring, offering greater computational efficiency and enhanced respect for user privacy compared to camera-based methods.]]>
