Classroom Desktop agent Overview

Securly Classroom has a dedicated agent that can be pushed to Windows and Mac devices. Although Classroom is accessible to teachers and other faculty members via any browser (deviceconsole.securly.com/classroom), the desktop agent offers additional benefits. You can:

• Monitor the student's entire desktop, as opposed to the extension-enabled access which is limited to viewing the browser tabs.
• Similar to closing tabs when accessing via the browser, you can also close desktop apps on the student device.
