Telangana Cyber Security Bureau (TGCSB) has deployed C-SIGHT, an offline AI platform that investigates child sexual exploitation and abuse material (CSEAM). This news was first reported by The Times of India. Read the original article here.
“Not a single byte of sensitive investigation information is sent to external or regular AI tools,” Shikha Goel, TGCSB Director General, reportedly told Times of India. Their ‘fully offline, privacy-first AI processes CyberTipline reports in under 20 minutes with 98% accuracy,’ wrote reporter Sudhakar Udumula on X.
What C-SIGHT does:
- Automatically extracts data from CyberTipline PDF files and converts to structured datasets
- Analyses images and videos; estimates probable age of victims
- Identifies the nature of abuse; categorises material by content and risk indicators
- Flag cases involving children up to 5 years old for priority attention
- Uses role-based access controls for sensitive material
- Processing time per tipline: 20 minutes or less
- Accuracy claimed by TGCSB:
- 98% for identifying CSEAM content;
- 98% data completeness;
- 100% for identifying suspect information.
TGCSB’s Child Protection Unit (CPU), in partnership with Vatins Systems, developed the system. Established on February 18, 2025, alongside Indian Child Protection (New Delhi), the CPU leverages reports from NCMEC (National Center for Missing & Exploited Children), a centralised global reporting mechanism.
