How secure is Moodle? ›

Security by design

To safeguard our entire user base, we adhere to a policy of responsible disclosure. This policy dictates that we only publicly disclose problems after solutions have been made available and once registered Moodle sites have had the opportunity to update or apply patches.

Definition of risk

Risk can come in various forms and can be categorized into four main categories: financial risk, operational risk, strategic risk, and compliance risk.

The 'Students at risk of dropping out' model predicts students who are at risk of non-completion (dropping out) of a Moodle course, based on low student engagement.

However, regardless of its user-friendly layout and thorough documentation, Moodle has its drawbacks. Its crowded interface, constrained theme options, limited media and content support, and narrow connection with external tools and systems are some of them.

It requires resources (people) to build the system and maintain it. If there is an issue, you need to have someone fix it. Companies that use Moodle tend to have a good size staff in-house to handle it. Those who do not, are often caught off guard.

Some of the most common adolescent high-risk behaviors include sexual activity, substance abuse, cigarette smoking, preventable injury and violence, including self-harm.

It's all part of their path to accepting responsibility, forming identities and becoming independent young adults. Also, teenagers are sometimes more likely than adults to make quick decisions without thinking through the consequences.

Risks can be situations beyond your control, such as inclement weather or public health crises, or emerge due to conflict in the workplace. As a business owner or manager, you can conduct risk management to identify potential hazards and develop strategies to resolve the issues before they materialize.

Moodle Security & Privacy Compliance. Moodle is trusted by hundreds of thousands of educational institutions, organisations, and governments worldwide in their daily operations.

Activity Logs: Moodle tracks student activity, helping educators identify unusual patterns. Quiz Security: Features like timed quizzes, randomized question orders, and question shuffling make cheating more challenging.

Course logs allow instructors to see when and which resources or activities have been accessed. You can check to see if an individual student has viewed a specific resource or participated in a particular activity.

Moodle provides log data at the site and course level. This data can be accessed and downloaded as activity reports. You can see what pages the students accessed, the time and date they accessed it, the IP address they came from, and their actions (view, add, update, delete).
