Proxy testing occurs when someone takes an exam for another candidate. In other words, the candidate has passed an exam without taking it. Engaging in proxy testing as either the test taker or the person who hired the test taker is considered a violation of ethics. If EC-Councils learns that a candidate used proxy testing or any similar service for an exam, this candidate will be permanently banned from taking any future EC-Council Certification exams. In addition, test scores and certifications, if applicable, may be revoked. These actions may be taken even if the candidate did not intend to defraud the EC-Council Certification Program.
If you have discovered a proxy testing site that offers fraudulent services for any of EC-Council’s certification programs, please send an email to [email protected].
