The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has developed a new internal evaluation portal for Class 12 re-evaluation, receiving approval from a panel of experts from the Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT). This decision follows serious security concerns that arose from vulnerabilities in a vendor portal, which could have compromised sensitive student data. The IIT panel deemed these flaws as high-risk and unacceptable, prompting CBSE to create a more secure internal system. Experts from IIT Madras and IIT Kanpur conducted a thorough audit of the new portal, focusing on data integrity and access controls. The previous Post-Result Activities (PRA) portal faced delays in May due to technical difficulties reported by students, including issues with submitting requests for scanned answer sheets. Despite these challenges, CBSE reported that the online application window for verification and re-evaluation was operational from June 2 to June 7, with over 1.6 lakh candidates successfully submitting requests for more than 3.8 lakh answer sheets. The board has committed to addressing all complaints about the portal's functionality to ensure a smoother experience for students.
