Elliptic and Internet Watch Foundation Join Forces to Tackle Crypto-Financed Child Abuse Material

Elliptic, a provider of blockchain analytics solutions, has announced a partnership with the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF), a non-profit organization dedicated to combating child sexual abuse material (CSAM) online. This collaboration aims to leverage Elliptic’s technology to identify and disrupt the use of cryptocurrencies in funding the production and distribution of CSAM. Elliptic will provide the IWF with advanced analytical tools to help track suspicious transactions carried out with digital currencies, enabling them to identify and report offenders to the relevant authorities. Through this collaboration, Elliptic and the IWF hope to reduce the prevalence of this abhorrent material and protect children from exploitation. This partnership represents a significant step towards using technology to fight online crime and protect the most vulnerable members of society. The partnership will bolster the IWF’s ability to detect and address emerging threats in the cryptocurrency space, making the internet a safer place for children.
