Keywords

The IWF provides a list of words and phrases commonly used by those seeking out child sexual abuse* and criminally obscene adult content to a number of our member companies and other relevant partner organisations. This list is updated every month and has various uses:

  • to help search providers improve the quality of search returns
  • helping to protect employees from criminal content which may be accessed on business networks
  • in software monitoring tools to flag up potential abuses of networks and applications
  • as a resource within projects in the education sector to help provide a safer online experience for children.

*Please note: The IWF uses the term child sexual abuse content to accurately reflect the gravity of the images we deal with. Please note that child pornography, child porn and kiddie porn are not acceptable terms. The use of such language acts to legitimise images which are not pornography, rather, they are permanent records of children being sexually exploited and as such should be referred to as child sexual abuse images. If you see such content online please report it to the IWF.
