After the high condemnation CBSE received for the adverse paper leak scam of both the classes 10 and 12,Central Board of Secondary Education partnered with the tech giant Microsoft in order to ensure consistent paper distribution with encrypted data.However,such initiatives were impulsively required to avoid further misleads in future and strengthen the paper security before the examinations.This solution has been tried-and-true in the compartment examination of 4,000 Class 10th students.

“We have developed CBSE an innovative solution which makes question paper leak-proof until 30 min prior to the start of the examinations. But if the question paper gets leaked after they are allowed to download (just half an hour before the start of the exam) due to some bad actors, the system allows easy traceability as question paper for each center are watermarked.” Anil Bhansali,Managing Director,Microsoft India (R&D) and Corporate Vice President,Cloud and Enterprise told IANS.
