The latest company to join Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) Membership is Diladele B. V.
Based in the Netherlands, the web filtering company provides its customers with proxy solutions that block potentially malicious file downloads, remove annoying online adverts, and block resources with explicit content. Their products stand for high web safety, and aim to sanitise the internet traffic.
Being an IWF Member, Diladele B. V. will now implement IWF’s Keywords List into its services to keep its customers safe from online child sexual abuse imagery.
Rafael Akchurin, Diladele B. V. CEO, said: “We are happy to join IWF and look forward to improve filtering capabilities of our product with a list of keywords and URLs. Partnership with IWF will let us provide better protection for schools and educational institutions all over the world and especially in the UK.”
Susie Hargreaves OBE, IWF CEO, said: “Partnering up with web filtering companies is crucial to our work and our vision of eliminating online child sexual abuse imagery for good. I wish Diladele B. V. a very warm welcome from me and the IWF Team.”
