iShield has been selected as a participating company for the Ministry of SMEs and Startups' "2024 Startup Growth Technology Development Project: Stepping Stone First Step Startup Specialist Institution (R&D Project)." This selection provides iShield with the opportunity to significantly improve the speed of processing and monitoring illegal, harmful information, false content, and cybercrime posts online.
iShield will receive KRW 120 million in technology development funding over one year through the Stepping Stone Project, with the goal of advancing the analytical model for AI-based cyber-malicious content identification technology. This funding will enable the development of technology to "rapidly identify cybercrime and malicious content," increasing the probability of deleting and blocking malicious information online and developing an AI-based analysis model that effectively utilizes reported information.
The Stepping Stone Project is an R&D initiative designed to support the growth of startups with innovative technologies. Eyeshield anticipates that this initiative will overcome the limitations of administrative agencies and enable rapid information response. With the growth of the online market, the amount of content that violates laws and regulations is increasing. The need for new technologies is further emphasized amidst the growing number of illegal content, such as AI-powered deepfakes. Eyeshield believes that this project will help prevent the vicious cycle of illegal content distribution caused by the increasing number of reviews and delayed review periods each year.
iShield's "illegal and harmful content analysis model" leverages natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision (CV) technologies to monitor and quickly remove malicious content in real time. This enables identification three times faster than manual analysis and dramatically improves response speed by predicting the likelihood of deletion and the time required. Furthermore, it can significantly improve the efficiency of a company's brand reputation management, as well as the extraction and deletion of personally identifiable information.
“We will contribute to the prevention of cybercrime by quickly identifying and blocking illegal and harmful content online through AI-based content analysis models,” said Shin So-hyun, CEO of iShield. “We will strive to protect citizens and create a healthy online ecosystem.”
