UMass Amherst Rescue Lab

All children deserve to be protected and rescued from sexual abuse.

For more than a decade, the UMass Cybersecurity Institute’s Rescue Lab has been the premier computer science research group working to rescue children from Internet-based sexual exploitation. Our research and novel forensic methods are used by investigators in every U.S state and in many countries around the world.

Over a thousand children have been rescued from sexual exploitation by investigators using our tools in every state and over 40 countries. We work with investigators to provide the latest tools and insights. We have never charged for our tools or training.

Please donate to our non-profit mission to rescue children from internet-based abuse.

Your gift will help us continue to develop these critical tools. All funds are dedicated to supporting our staff who are working to address this problem.
