Published:  Wed 17 Dec 2025

The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) is proud to welcome CameraForensics as a new Member, strengthening a shared mission to eradicate child sexual abuse material from the internet and safeguard children worldwide.

CameraForensics is a global leader in online imaging intelligence, working closely with law enforcement agencies to develop cutting-edge tools that tackle emerging threats and accelerate time-critical investigations into crimes against children. The company’s technology helps investigators to identify victims and offenders faster, while reducing unnecessary exposure to harmful material.

By embedding IWF’s Hash List into its capabilities, CameraForensics will enable investigators to prioritise high-risk cases, protect more children from harm and reduce trauma among professionals on the front line.

The comprehensive library of unique ‘digital fingerprints’ of known child sexual abuse content allows CameraForensics to detect criminal images and videos quickly and accurately.

Matt Burns, Founder of CameraForensics, said: “We are very proud to partner with the Internet Watch Foundation. Enhancing our CameraForensics capabilities with IWF’s Image Hash List is an essential step on this journey.

“By helping investigators to quickly identify known child sexual abuse material, we can help them prioritise the high-risk cases where children need urgent protection. Thank you to IWF for all the incredible work that they continue to do.”

Kerry Smith, Internet Watch Foundation CEO, said: “Collaboration with tech companies like CameraForensics helps to amplify the reach of essential tools and expertise to create a safer digital world for children.

“By joining the IWF as a Member, CameraForensics demonstrate their commitment to child protection and we are pleased to have them join us in our mission to stop the spread of child sexual abuse material online.”
