1. INHOPE FOUNDATION – CSAM: how are we doing
INHOPE FOUNDATION – CSAM: how are we doing? A focus on the current state of Child Sexual Abuse Material online production, distribution and exploitation. Trends, threats and global response.
Maria Grazia Testa – GLOBAL programme manager – inhope FOUNDATION

2. What are CSAM and CSE?
CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material) and CSE (Child Sexual Exploitation) are the documentation of a child being sexually abused, a video, an image, a photograph, a recording of the violence, which every time published, shared, reproduced or seen perpetuates the abuse. Today, thousands of CSAM and CSE items circulate on the Internet and hundreds new are uploaded every hour.
The number of child sexual abuse material reports that the International Association of Internet Hotlines INHOPE receives has been increasing by a yearly average of 45%, since the start of the programme.

3. Why INHOPE? Our work starts when a child has already been abused.
Our work is to make sure it does not happen again.

6. ICCAM
Identification of previously reported material, allowing thus to focus only on new evidence
Crawling of websites and URLs directories retrieving all the images and videos available, hence reducing the time analysts require to manually surf web pages and locate CSAM
Tracing of hosting country and allocation to competent hotline
Categorization based on legislative level of abuse and demographic info (age, gender), with options for bulk classification which reduces processing time
Direct transfer of reports to competent country hotlines and to Interpol
Functionality for direct transfer to ISPs and national LEA
Statistical tools with real time summary data of the reports handled and their demographic and legislative properties
Operational management tools: queues, status, tracking
Synchronization application programming interfaces which allows the exchange of data with other preminent hotlines systems (NCMEC, Arachnid) allowing thousands of reports every day to be transferred automatically to hosting countries
Security and Reliability in the process of reports exchange and archiving
