The IBSAT proctoring system is designed to handle minor disruptions. If the internet fails, the timer usually pauses, and you can resume the test from the same question once the connection is restored, provided it is within a reasonable timeframe (typically 3-5 minutes). However, frequent disconnections or a long absence from the camera view may lead to the session being flagged or terminated by the remote proctor. It is highly recommended to use a power backup and a secondary internet source like a mobile hotspot as a standby.
