Updates to Thorn’s CSAM Model
To help accelerate your investigations and identify victims of child sexual abuse faster AXIOM has an integration with Thorn’s advanced AI model: the CSAM Image Classifier. In AXIOM 7.10, Thorn’s CSAM model has been updated to provide even greater accuracy, addressing false positive hits for different image types and increasing the precision of both CSAM and pornography detection to 99.9%.
Thorn has been around since 2012, building technology to defend children from sexual abuse. Their CSAM Image Classifier—a machine learning classification model predicts the likelihood that a file contains imagery of child sexual abuse to help stop revictimization caused by the further spread of abuse content while also protecting the mental health of the people responsible for reviewing it.
Animated Maps
As with many things, seeing is believing. To help add important context to your reports and testimony in court, we have introduced Animated Maps* in Magnet AXIOM.
You can now generate animated routes in AXIOM to show the movements of subjects to help provide context for investigations and court testimony. Routes can be built using the evidence from artefact data containing timestamps and location data – such as mobile and drone data – for specific time and date ranges.
With the prominence of mobile data in criminal investigations, you can tap into a rich well of location data. Animated Maps allow you to demonstrate the “where” and “when” of your findings in a clear and engaging visual demonstrating the movements of suspects, victims, or witnesses.
Email Explorer
In 2023, an estimated 347.3 billion e-mails were sent and received daily around the world. 85% of users use smartphones to access email, making it one of the most significant evidence sources coming from your mobile investigation
AXIOM’s Email Explorer** allows you to review email evidence in a familiar format that mirrors the appearance of common email platforms. It presents messages similarly to how the sender and recipient would have initially viewed them and provides important context that may otherwise be missed. Much like a native email platform, Email Examiner also offers several filters and search capabilities to narrow in on specific message times or themes to help manage the volume of data.
