EasyEnv catches the signals that matter: pasted solutions, time spent off-screen, and answers that could only have come from somewhere else.
But the strongest defense is not surveillance. It is a task that cannot be Googled or copied. Our challenges are real broken systems, so a memorized answer or a pasted snippet simply does not work.
Hidden help that hides who actually did the work.
A pasted solution someone else wrote. A friend on a second screen. A leaked answer key. An impersonator sitting the test. These break the one thing an interview is for: finding out what this candidate can do.
Using AI well, when you let them.
If the role uses Claude or Copilot every day, banning it in the interview tests the wrong thing. EasyEnv lets you allow AI and score how well they use it. Cheating detection is about hidden help, not honest tools.
No webcam spyware, no keystroke biometrics. Just the behavioral signals that tell you whether the work in front of you is really theirs, attached to the moment they happened.
When a candidate pastes into the editor or terminal, EasyEnv captures it: how many characters, from where, and at what point in the task. A 400-line solution pasted in one keystroke reads very differently from a developer who typed their way to it.
The moment the interview tab loses focus or the window is hidden, the clock starts. You see how often a candidate left, for how long, and what happened right after they came back. A 40-second detour followed by a perfect paste is a story worth reading.
Our challenges are real broken systems, not textbook puzzles with a known answer. The fix depends on the actual state of that VM, so there is nothing to search for, nothing to copy off Stack Overflow, and no leaked answer key to pass around. A model can help reason, but it cannot hand over the answer.
Most cheating works because the question has a known, shareable answer. Algorithm puzzles live on LeetCode. Trivia lives on Stack Overflow. The answer key gets passed around in a group chat before your candidate even logs in.
EasyEnv challenges are different. Each one is a real Linux machine put into a broken state on purpose. The fix depends on the actual condition of that specific box, so there is nothing generic to search, paste, or memorize. Candidates have to diagnose, reason, and act, which is exactly the skill you are hiring for.
EasyEnv never accuses anyone. It hands you the evidence and lets a human decide. The whole session is captured so a flag is always one click from the moment it happened.
Screen and terminal are recorded end-to-end. Scrub to any flagged moment and watch what the candidate actually did, in context.
A paste or a tab switch is information, not a conviction. There are honest reasons for both. You see the timeline and make the call.
Every candidate runs the same broken box with the same rules. Integrity signals line up side by side, so review is consistent, not vibes.
Run an interview where the answer cannot be Googled, the pastes are visible, and the recording settles every doubt. Set one up on EasyEnv in under 10 minutes.
