Reading, UK – April 17th, 2012 – Image Analyser (www.image-analyzer.com) announced today that the company will be providing their technology to Axigen (www.axigen.com), a leading provider of messaging solutions for Linux and Microsoft environments. Axigen will apply Image Analyzer to their email, calendaring and collaboration platform to provide users with added protection from inappropriate images such as pornography.
The statistics on internet pornography are truly staggering. According to compiled numbers from a variety of news and research organisations(1), every second over $3,000.00 is being spent on pornography and over 28000 internet users are viewing pornography. In that same second over 370 internet users are typing adult search terms into search engines. Every 39 minutes a new pornographic video is being created in the USA.
The addition of Image Analyzer to the Axigen messaging and collaboration platform will help to improve protection for the 11,000 companies and 8 million users of the Axigen solution from inadvertent exposure to inappropriate imagery. Image Analyzer can also assist with the detection of any inappropriate use of an organisation’s messaging and collaboration solutions for disseminating inappropriate images.
Cris Pikes, CEO of Image Analyser, commented, “Images increasingly dominate new web content with over one-third of sites containing adult-oriented content such as pornography. Image Analyzer offers Axigen’s corporate and service provider customers added protection from the risk of inadvertent exposure to illicit images such as pornography. By deploying Image Analyzer across the company’s integrated email, calendaring and collaboration platform, Axigen provides a consistently superior level of protection for users, companies and service providers from any compliance or corporate reputation risks associated with the dissemination of inappropriate images and pornography online.”
Eugen Belea, Product Manager of Axigen added, “We believe that messaging solutions need to be agile and adaptable to meet the specific communication needs of any small business, service provider or corporation while remaining affordable and secure. The addition of Image Analyzer to our integrated email, calendaring and collaboration platform supports our commitment to keeping all our users, from small businesses to large corporations, productive, compliant and protected from inappropriate image content.”
Image Analyzer technology will be integrated into the Axigen messaging and collaboration platform to broaden the range of security features based on message filtering.
Image Analyzer has been specifically developed to provide high levels of accuracy in correctly identifying clean content and to provide high detection rates for offensive material. Cris Pikes, CEO of Image Analyser added, “We are delighted that GeCAD Technologies has selected Image Analyzer as the image recognition engine for their Axigen messaging and collaboration platform.
