An online Image Filtering & Assessment Costing Tool has been created to estimate the volume, cost and staff resources required in the assessment and processing of business emails (with suspicious image attachments) that have been stopped when using a corporate email ‘image-analysis / porn’ filtering system.
The on-line tool can be accessed from this page: Image Filtering & Assessment Costing Tool
The purposes of this tool is to allow business management to calculate the estimated volume of suspicious email messages that will be:
- stopped by your ‘image-analysis / porn’ filter system as it may contain suspect pornographic images
- redirected to an human ‘assessor’ to manually review the contents of these suspicious email messages
- assessed to be a true positive (it does have pornographic content) or a false positive (it does not contain any inappropriate content)
…and to estimate the staff time needed:
- for the nominated ‘Email Assessor’ to assess, review and process emails with suspicious content
- for Human Resources to investigate and document the evidence required to process a formal disciplinary case – where an email incident contain pornographic content has been raised
- for an IT System Administrator to investigate, to search for computer evidence, and to take all the relevant backups, and to produce the relevant documentation to support these formal disciplinary proceedings

The tool will report the estimated annual costs to process suspicious email message image attachments internally (in-house) and then use these annual cost to calculate the potential annual savings your organisation can make by outsourcing the processing and management of this suspicious email content to Dicontas.
