Big data analysis artificial intelligence (AI) company S2W announced on the 17th that it participated in the global joint operation 'Operation Cyberprotect II' hosted by the International Criminal Police Organization Interpol and the EU police agency Europol.
CyberProtect II was a joint international operation held in a hackathon format at Interpol's headquarters in Lyon, France, from the 15th to the 17th of last month. Investigators from 10 countries participated in the operation, focusing on identifying online human trafficking and illegal immigration smuggling operations and disrupting criminal networks.
A defining characteristic of this operation is that it goes beyond simple data collection to include context-based analysis of criminal advertising, negotiation patterns, and actor characteristics. By comprehensively analyzing the correlations between data and gaining a three-dimensional understanding of the criminal structure, it is believed to have enhanced the effectiveness of preventing similar crimes.
S2W, along with Meta, was invited as a key private sector partner for this operation, providing AI-based analysis technology. S2W is notable for its participation in a full-scale international collaborative investigation after being selected as a partner for Interpol's public-private partnership program, the Gateway Initiative. The company utilized its security and law enforcement AI platform, XARVIS, to identify various criminal clues.
Jarvis is a platform that integrates and monitors covert channels such as the dark web, Telegram, and illegal virtual asset networks, analyzing incident information and criminal profiling data. Its unique feature is its ability to precisely identify the context of crime by applying the dark web-specific language model "DarkBERT" and knowledge graph-based "multi-domain data cross-analysis technology." Using this technology, S2W analyzed the activities of international human trafficking organizations, including accounts promoting illegal immigration routes, selling forged documents, and tracking information.
David Counter, Interpol's Director of the New Organized Crime Unit, said: "We will continue to work with law enforcement and private intelligence to address the growing threat of new forms of international crime, fueled by the proliferation of online tools."
S2W CEO Seo Sang-deok stated, “We attach significance to the fact that S2W technology has contributed to the suppression of international crime, and we will continue to strengthen the global competitiveness of Korean AI and security technology.”
