• Increasingly, predators are using advances in technology to engage in technology-facilitated sexual abuse.
• Our current research examines the methods online predators use to compromise children’s webcams.
• To do this, we posed online as children to observe active online predators in action.

Chatbots

• We began by creating several automated chatbots disguised as 13-year-old girls.
• We deployed these chatbots as bait for online predators in various chatrooms frequently used by children to socialize.
• In contrast, the automated chatbots we used gathered data about active offenders and the current methods they use to facilitate sexual abuse.

Methods of attack

• Some predators were explicit in their desires and immediately offered payment for videos of the child performing sexual acts.
• In addition to these commonly used tactics, we found that 39% of conversations included an unsolicited link.
• It was immediately obvious to us how some of these links could help a predator victimize a child.

Whereby video meetings

• The offender does not need to be technically savvy or socially manipulative to gain access to a child’s webcam.
• Instead, someone who can persuade a victim to visit a seemingly innocuous site could gain control of the child’s camera.
• Based on our analysis, it is possible that predators could use Whereby to control a child’s webcam by embedding a livestream of the video on a website of their choosing.
• Editor’s note: The Conversation reached out to Whereby, and a spokesperson there disputed that the feature could be exploited.
• A recent study reported that although children are considered fluent new media users, they lack digital literacy in the area of safety and privacy.

Keeping your kids safe online

• Here are some recommendations to help keep your kid safe while online.
• The anonymity provided by social media sites and chatrooms facilitates the initial contact that can lead to online sexual abuse.
