Enabling analytics of sensitive datasets for the benefit of society
"The more data the better" is a recurring request from organisations when it comes to mining data sets to solve complex problems. However, in unique cases, being exposed to too much data can be harmful to one's mental health when working on the data-driven front line.
Law enforcement agencies are tasked with identifying abhorrent conent during investigations, often resulting in higher rates of post-traumatic stress disorder amongst officers.
To help protect investigators from being exposed to vast amounts of such material, CSIRO's Data61 is working with Monash University and the AFP (Australian Federal Police) to analyse potentially harmful data without the need to view it.
