Phoenix, AZ, Dec. 16, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
RAADR, Inc. (OTCQB: RDAR), a technology and software development company that monitors cyber bullying and social media platforms through its artificially intelligent proprietary web-based application, today announced development of a platform to detect and flag online recruitment by terrorist organizations like ISIS to help protect the world’s youth from these dangers.
Online recruitment has become a larger problem throughout the world with the advent and exponential growth of social media. RAADR’s research and development team has identified several key topics related to online terrorism recruitment tactics utilized by ISIS and other harmful organizations across the globe. This will allow the company to extend its platform to scan for these topics and keywords in order to flag them for parental review.
“Children are more impressionable, and they are easily tricked and misled. ISIS and other terrorist organizations have figured out how manipulate children to fall into their agendas. These communications are often let to fall between the cracks. We have an opportunity to help combat this, and we’re working diligently on our solution as we speak,” said RAADR, Inc. CEO, Jacob DiMartino, “With all the recent worldwide tragedy, we feel the timing is right to bring this technology to market. We know ISIS is recruiting heavily online, and we need to help parents be on the offensive with protecting their children.”
The company anticipates finishing work on its scanning algorithm to detect these communications before the end of the year. “Remember, if you see or hear something concerning, report it to law enforcement representatives to be addressed. We all play a role in protecting our children and our society at large,” DiMartino concluded.
