Child abuse and exploitation investigators face increasing pressure to identify victims more quickly, manage growing volumes of digital evidence, and reduce investigative backlogs, all while being exposed to some of the most challenging material encountered in policing.

As digital evidence volumes continue to grow, agencies require technology that not only accelerates investigations but also helps safeguard the wellbeing of the people carrying out this critical work.

In this session, attendees will explore how Detego Global's digital forensics technology helps investigators rapidly identify critical evidence, reduce manual review, automate repetitive tasks, and minimise unnecessary exposure to traumatic content. Attendees will discover how capabilities such as rapid triage, AI-powered analytics, semantic search, facial recognition, image classification, selective image blurring, safer viewing technologies, and workflow automation are helping investigators accelerate casework while supporting healthier, safer, and more sustainable ways of working.

The session will also examine the growing role technology plays in protecting investigator wellbeing, reducing operational pressures, and helping organisations improve both investigative outcomes and workforce resilience without compromising evidential integrity.
