Q1: Does my exam organizer/teacher get notified if I'm using a Virtual Machine?A: Short answer is no.Although, in theory, those that are moretech-savvy, could ask for yourSEB logs.
FromSEB Official Website:
[...] Some data which can be considered to be personal (computer host name,computer account user name, some URLs of opened web pages etc.) can becontained in the log files SEB saves on the system it is running on (when used with default settings).Log files are not transmitted to any server by SEB,you can manually collect those log files for debugging purposes.
Q2: What can my exam organizer/teacher do with my SEB logs anyways?
A: Welp, surprisingly... Not much from what we analyzed. Although they can always obtainas referred on the quote before yourcomputer hostname andaccount user name. If you're running SEB on a virtual machine, obviously, that it's not going to match your original laptop's model oreven a valid computer model in that matter. Example below.
