Software Secure, Inc., a pioneer in secure, computer-based testing solutions, today announced that the University of South Alabama College of Nursing has selected Software Secure's Securexam® Remote Proctor System to ensure the integrity of the school's online examinations.

Davis, Dean of USA's College of Nursing. Read More here.
