ARICA

Overview

ARICA (Assessing Risk Indicators of Child Abuse) is an grant-funded project developing advanced AI capabilities to support law enforcement agencies investigating child sexual exploitation material (CSEM). Grant funding has come from the European Union, from EACTDA (European Anti-Cybercrime Tools Development Agency) and from End Violence, with UK Home Office funding.

The project brings together technology providers, law enforcement agencies, and academic partners to deliver tools that accelerate risk analysis and triage, improving targeting decisions.
