(From Taipei, Taiwan) Parents usually ask school staff: are my children safe in campus? Sadly speaking, they are obviously not at this moment. The potential risk of violent incidents in campus has been raised higher than before according to police report. There are lots of factors behind: crowd students, less support funding, and education staff without good training in public schools…etc. Another important factor is the alienation between parents and children: most parents must work for longer hours every day to cover cruel inflation in daily life, so children will stay with their peers and hung around corners of street and campus. Without proper cares from communities or schools, these children will become juvenile delinquents or cadets of mafia sooner or later.

How a child become a fallen angel can be tracked back from his/her growth path in campus. According to Prof. KC Wu’s study (2011) of National Taiwan Central Police University, from their online communication through daily email, social media, instant message, there are lots of traces with their jargons, thoughts, activities, relationship …etc. All these reflect their viewpoint toward surrounding, with which they will also try to solve their problems by their own way.

To prevent from such defiant viewpoint and behavior of children, monitoring their online communication properly is the measure both school staff and parents should take in campus or at home. It proves very positive and effective to deploy such network forensic equipment and abnormal behavior pattern data analysis system in data center of public school board in several counties in Canada.

“E-Detective system really helps us to successfully stop several incidents of cyber bullying, violence harassment, and suicide in campus,” said Steve McCollan, IT Director of one of public school board in B. C., Canada, “and with cooperation from parents and police, number of abnormal campus events for the past 12 months was decreased drastically.”

In Japan, some private schools also work with physical security company to deploy network forensic system for monitor student cyber communication extensively. “From abnormal behavior pattern analysis from online activity report by E-Detective, we successfully prevent from several incidents of violent bully in campus,” said Mr. Nomura, school security staff of high school in Chiba County, Japan, “and now campus is more safe for all students after we deploy E-Detective system.”

E-Detective is the powerful equipment in campus to conduct abnormal behavior pattern analysis on intercepted records of student online communication through email, social media, blog, youtube and instant message utilities. It can recognize more than 180 common online protocols, carry out content reconstruction, and conduct data analysis with keywords and link analysis. By these functions, you may easily find out what is behind the fact, when will happen, who else involves…etc in campus, and take immediate action to prevent it happened.
