Terms and conditions for the Burp Suite Certified Practitioner certification
Summary: PortSwigger's certification terms state that exams are proctored by an Automated Proctor that authenticates a candidate's identity via a real-time webcam feed and reports any behavior that could constitute cheating or dishonesty. PortSwigger reserves the right to revoke a certificate, bar the candidate from exam services, and revoke later certificates without refund if proctoring reports such behavior or if a candidate shares exam challenges or solutions.
What you should know: For a security leader sponsoring staff through the Burp Suite Certified Practitioner exam, a proctoring finding can void the credential and bar the employee from future exams with no refund, and the sponsor is liable for that candidate's acts as if they were its own.
