A Holistic Online Result Processing: Using Role-Based Access Control

The security surrounding Result Processing in an online environment necessitates swift intervention, given the rapidly evolving technology that is now crucial for both students and Staff, as thoroughly examined in this work. Access Control presents serious security risks that require careful attention. Despite numerous researchers discussing various measures to address the overall system, the findings highlight the importance of prioritising data security, integrity, and user experience to uphold academic confidentiality in a digital world. With the transformation in the digital world, educational institutions should endeavour to manage student records effectively while maintaining data security. This work examined the security and safety of student results and transcripts in an online environment. An Agile methodology was employed, which supports Iterative development and flexibility, allowing for constant feedback and quick adjustments to requirements. This approach ensures data integrity, confidentiality, and accessibility. The system is designed to simplify the management of academic records. It has a well-defined interface for administrators, Exam Officers, the Academic Planning Unit, and students, with role-based access control, to ensure a holistic online result processing system that secures authentication and data encryption for non-illegal access and data breaches, which are essential in good system development. This work covers the system's design, implementation, and holistic data security and operational efficiency. The systems that were successfully implemented also indicate that they can be used to meet the needs of educational institutions that are willing to improve their result-processing procedures.
