Dangers we Detect

Child Sexual Abuse
Being groomed to partake in sexual acts online or offline. This includes detection of grooming patterns and the abuse itself. Peer on peer abuse, prostitution and self-generated content is included in this danger category.
Financial extortion
Extortion is the practice of obtaining something, typically money, through force, threats, or coercion. When this involves sexts this can be called Sextortion. This category includes warnings such as a child oversharing online and facing financial pressures which can make a child vulnerable to exploitation. It includes detecting age inappropriate payment methods.
Crime (Under 18)
Detection of all-age illegal activities including drugs, gangs, county lines, weapons and violent hate speech. This category also includes illegal activities by age for example gambling which is legal for over 18s but illegal for under 18s.
Over Sexualisation
Seeing, producing or sending explicit/adult themed messages, photographs and videos. This includes pornography, cyber-flashing and sexting.
Online Bullying
Bullying is deliberate and repeated harassment, threat, embarrassment, or targeting of another person. The online bullying category detects perpetrators or victims and identifies various forms of online bullying including ostracisation, hate speech and discrimination.
A child can be radicalised into increasingly extreme groups, eventually becoming violent and partaking in other illegal behaviours. Within this category, vulnerabilities and patterns which might indicate grooming into these extreme groups are detected. Consuming extreme content in various forms from misogynistic, racist, radicalisation, fundamentalism, conspiracy theories and more. Detecting language that glorifies violence, and indicates isolation and anger.
Extreme content
Unusual Locations
Big Sister is not the app for day-to-day tracking which can impinge on a child’s privacy. However, it flags if the child’s device is in a non-normal location for them.
Health & Wellbeing
Unhealthy behaviours like excessive time online or gaming, fasting, dieting and lack of sleep are included. Also detecting vulnerabilities to depression and anxiety, consuming self harm and suicide content and eating disorder content.
Privacy First
At Big Sister we ensure that your child's safety and consent is platformed to ensure no child feels ‘watched’ or exploited online. Your child has to consent to install the app and can uninstall any time. This protects them from the possibility of being abused through the app. As a parent you get a red flag if the app is uninstalled. Other apps for online safety will actually be routes to spy on your children which erodes trust and induces children to circumvent your safety nets. Big Sister only takes the data to spot warning flags. The parent will only see what is needed to keep a child safe. No more.
