ASRG
Advancing Assessment Integrity Worldwide
The Assessment Security Research Group (ASRG) is a global initiative by VICTVS, dedicated to researching, sharing and driving best practice in assessment security.
What is ASRG?
The Assessment Security Research Group (ASRG) brings together industry experts, researchers and assessment professionals from around the world.
Together, we explore emerging threats, develop evidence-based insights, and publish research that supports fair, valid and secure assessments – whether online, on-site or hybrid.
Why Assessment Security Matters
In a rapidly changing assessment landscape, new risks emerge from generative AI misuse and smart wearable devices to networked criminal fraud gangs.
Without proactive research and strong security-led design, the credibility of assessments and the value of qualifications are greatly exposed.
ASRG is VICTVS’s commitment to staying ahead of these threats – safeguarding integrity for global learners and awarding bodies alike.
