The Aqua One Smartphone by Cyber Dive Equips Parents To Combat the Online Safety Issues Posed by End-to-End Messaging Encryption That Protects Online Predators

Published

With its revolutionary Parent Dashboard, the Aqua One smartphone breaks barriers that have prevented parents from accessing their child’s online activity and instead, arms them against the rising threats of online predators lurking on social media platforms.

PHOENIX, Dec. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Cyber Dive stands at the forefront of transforming the digital landscape, championing safety and well-being for millions of children through tech-forward innovations. Enter the era of digital guardianship with the Aqua One – an unparalleled smartphone that shatters barriers that have hindered parents from safeguarding their children online. Pioneering a revolutionary dashboard, this device grants parents real-time insights into their child’s digital realm, arming them with a formidable tool against online predators. As social media landscapes evolve, Cyber Dive remains the beacon of protection for our children’s online futures.

 

The Aqua One’s Parent Dashboard is unmatched, transcending all existing monitoring tools and child-friendly smartphones. With unparalleled access, parents enjoy limitless visibility into their child’s online realm – every keystroke, watch history, text message, and social media interaction is meticulously captured and instantly replayable. This cutting-edge experience unfolds seamlessly on a web application, empowering iOS and Android users to stay connected effortlessly with their child’s digital world. Spanning a staggering 8,348 apps and social media platforms, the Aqua One sets a new standard, placing absolute control and insight directly into the hands of vigilant parents.

“Let’s be blunt. Social media has created a major problem for parents and children. For parents, social media monitoring should not be DIY, and we have created the only solution that provides trusted answers, real-time insights regardless of platform, and transparent data lineage. Parents finally get to see everything,” said Cyber Dive Co-Founder and CEO Jeff Gottfurcht. “While instant replay was invented in 1963, we are the first and only company that has adopted this combinatory tool to show parents everything their children see on social media. We have created the next phase of instant replay for parents, where every action a child takes on their Aqua One is immediately sent to their parent dashboard. It’s this synchronization that parents have been screaming for, but big tech, as usual, has been adamantly reluctant to show parents what their children are becoming addicted to. We can list all the stats and share all the stories that are not just all over the media but also the ones we hear from our customers about what social media is doing to their children. Depression, eating disorders, body image issues, self-harm, trafficking, attaining drugs, bullying, sending explicit photos, to the ultimate pain, suicide. These are real stories and real consequences. They are not just users. No one is immune to the tentacles of social media and its effects on children today.”

Aqua One’s revolutionary Parent Dashboard equips parents with a powerful tool at a time when their child’s online safety is increasingly at stake. Facebook’s parent company, Meta, recently announced in early December of 2023 the introduction of end-to-end encryption of every message sent on Facebook Messenger, meaning the content of all messages sent on the platform will be hidden from everyone except the sender and intended recipient.

Child safety groups warn that this will significantly hinder the continuing fight for the protection of children from online predators and pedophiles on the platform. In collaboration with NCMEC (National Center for Missing and Exploited Children), the leading organization in the fight for missing and exploited children, The Guardian reported soon after Meta’s announcement that “Meta…submitted nearly 95% of the 29 million reports NCMEC’s CyberTipline received from tech companies in 2022. A large proportion of these tips depicted child sexual abuse material in which children are being raped, abused and sexually exploited…”. With the introduction of end-to-end encryption, child sex abuse material will only be detected if either the sender or recipient reports it to Meta. This change NCMEC anticipates will plummet the number of reports among large reporting companies of suspected child sexual abuse by close to 80%.

This news comes close on the heels of a report released by Stanford University and the University of Massachusetts Amherst in The Wall Street Journal that Meta is failing to contain the sizable online predator and pedophile networks present on both Instagram and Facebook. During the study, researchers discovered a wide range of groups that dealt with child sex abuse material, including a 200,000-user group dedicated to the celebration of incest. Despite flagging such groups via user reports, Meta didn’t only refuse to take them down – they cited the groups as acceptable due to their adherence to the Community Standards. Meta has also been reluctant to take action against limiting the searchability of hashtags commonly used by pedophiles on its platforms. The decision to institute end-to-end encryption of Messenger provides additional protections to adults trading child sexual abuse material or engaging in child grooming.

Cyber Dive’s response to the escalation of online threats to children is to boldly and directly face them alongside the people who care the most: parents. The smartphone’s one-of-a-kind ability to record a child’s digital journey allows parents to see circumvents and propels the battle against message encryption. Unshackled by app dependencies to Facebook, Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, and Discord, the Aqua One’s Parent Dashboard is woven seamlessly into the phone’s core and assures unwavering access amidst tech giants’ shifts. Monitoring all 8,348 apps fortifies parents with a shield against online predators and dangers that don’t currently exist. Cyber Dive’s Aqua One and its Parent Dashboard offer a vigilant option for today’s parents and a breath of fresh air into the true definition of revolutionary.

“Parenting at any age is a journey. Sometimes it can be hard to see where you are going and how far you have come,” said Cyber Dive Co-Founder and CTO Derek Jackson. “But with our phone, you have a co-pilot. No secrets, no hidden paths—just a clear view of the road ahead. Because in this digital age, the best way to protect is to see.”

SINGAPORE, Nov. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In just a few months, Novo AI’s advanced solution has elevated APRIL International’s performance across Thailand, Vietnam, Hong Kong, and Singapore, achieving more than three fold increase in efficiency and setting new benchmarks in private medical insurance. What was once a slow, costly process is now faster, more profitable, and delivers happier customers. Here’s what happened.

Pressing Challenges Undermining the Profitability of the Insurance Sector

As a leading provider in the private medical insurance sector, APRIL International faces the ongoing challenge of managing vast volumes of complex medical claims. The high influx of non-standard documents requires extensive manpower to interpret and validate unstructured data, contributing to inefficiencies and high operational costs.

Additionally, regional fraud and abuse levels range between 15%-35% from country to country, making it crucial for a company like APRIL International to identify a solution that captures fraud and abuse at scale, enhances efficiency and bolsters profitability.

Old Problems Require New Solutions

Facing a growing challenge, APRIL International was looking for a solution aimed at eliminating critical operational inefficiencies. One of their top priorities was to streamline document ingestion and management for healthcare claims, enabling real-time detection of inconsistencies across claims, providers and practitioner data. Crucially, this solution needed unwavering accuracy across 100% of claims and rapid deployment.

The answer came from Novo AI. Their advanced solution generated a 230% boost in productivity and a 400% lift in efficiency for APRIL International. Tasks that once took 10 days now require only 2, with the system surpassing human accuracy in processing not only digital data, but also handwriting and stamps.

Novo AI’s CEO highlights, “Our solution delivers high accuracy claim-handling from day one and can adapt to specific business requirements without retraining. We streamline claim processing and fraud detection independently of policy writing, resulting in faster claim management. A faster claim process means happier customers for APRIL International, and in return, for Novo AI as well.

APRIL International’s CEO remarks: “Insurance involves processing vast amounts of data daily. Novo AI has allowed us to significantly accelerate our claims processing and detect fraud and abuse, enabling us to reduce unnecessary expenses and improve loss ratios across the region. We’re excited by further developments who will help us optimize further for an improved customer experience and profitability.

This success marks a pivotal innovation in insurance, setting new industry standards. In its early stages of widespread adoption, Novo AI is already gearing up to deliver even more groundbreaking GenAI solutions.

Mega Hopper Maximizes Convenience with Easy Assembly and Cleaning

High-Quality, Pulp-Free Juicing Performance Praised

SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Hurom’s flagship H400 juicer has been awarded Best Kitchen Product of the Year by Forbes as part of the 2024 Forbes Vetted Best Product Awards.

Each year, Forbes selects top products across nine categories—including kitchen, beauty, fashion, tech, and travel—using rigorous criteria such as quality, value, user convenience based on hands-on testing, and customer reviews. This year’s award-winning products all received high marks for their exceptional quality, innovative technology, and high consumer satisfaction.

The Hurom H400 juicer stood out for its impressive performance, user-friendly design, and elegant look, securing its position as the top kitchen product for 2024.

Featuring low-speed extraction technology, the H400 maintains the nutrients in fruits and vegetables, enhancing juice quality. By minimizing heat during extraction, it allows consumers to fully retain and enjoy the nutrients found in fruits and vegetables, while preventing oxidation for a fresher taste. With its powerful juicing capability, Forbes noted that the H400 delivers smooth, pulp-free juice with rich flavor.

The innovative Mega Hopper also lets users place whole fruits and vegetables directly into the juicer, where they are automatically cut, reducing prep time. Designed for simplicity from assembly to cleaning, the H400’s convenience features contributed significantly to its high ratings in the Forbes evaluation.

With a sleek, modern design that complements kitchen decor, the Hurom H400 also includes a built-in puree cup that collects pulp during juicing, maximizing space efficiency and earning positive design feedback.

Jaewon Kim, CEO of Hurom, shared, “We are honored to see the Hurom H400’s quality recognized internationally. Hurom will continue to bring innovative, user-centered products to consumers around the world, promoting the value of health and wellness.”

Earlier in February, the Hurom H400 received praise from Forbes as the Best Juicer for its low-speed extraction technology and user-friendly features. Additionally, in 2023, the Hurom H200 earned the title of Best Juicer Overall from Forbes, recognized for its exceptional ease of use.
