ANGELES, May 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Thorn, a
nonprofit that builds technology to defend children from sexual
abuse, proudly announces that its solution Safer has been
recognized as a 2024 Marketplace Risk Solution Provider Excellence
Program Honoree. This prestigious designation highlights Safer's
impactful role in protecting content-hosting platforms from the
risks of hosting child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and other forms
of child sexual exploitation.
The Marketplace Risk Solution Provider Excellence Program
identifies and celebrates solution providers like Thorn who have
demonstrated exceptional ability to innovate and implement
strategies that effectively mitigate digital risks. Thorn's Safer
was selected after a rigorous evaluation process, including
detailed case study submissions reviewed by the Marketplace Risk
Advisory Board.
Safer is a leading solution designed to detect, review and
report child sexual abuse material (CSAM) across digital platforms.
This tool not only identifies verified CSAM through sophisticated
hashing and matching technology but also protects human moderators
by shielding them from direct exposure to harmful content.
"Being named a Marketplace Risk Solution Provider Excellence
Program Honoree is a testament to our team's expertise in
developing strategic and innovative technological solutions to
address online child sexual abuse and exploitation at scale," said
Julie Cordua, CEO at Thorn. "We
remain steadfast in our efforts to empower digital platforms with
solutions and resources they need to ensure their spaces are safe
for all users, especially children."
This recognition by Marketplace Risk not only underscores
Thorn's continued leadership in child safety technology but also
reinforces the crucial role of building new technologies to advance
and protect child safety in the digital age.
