Criminal justice
Efficient and effective criminal justice is an important component of any national effort to counter child sexual exploitation and abuse online.
Offenders and potential offenders should know that they are at risk of discovery and prosecution. The ability to identify and assess risks to children, prevent harm where possible and prosecute offenders is essential.
A legal system, enforced by capable police and trained prosecutors, helps protect children online. Reporting mechanisms can help support enforcement so that users can report concerns. Additional tools include shared access to international databases, particularly those regarding child sexual abuse material, and offender targeting methodologies.
