Highreso's AI-Powered IP Monitoring Service 'IP PATROL' Adopted by ABJ for Anti-Piracy Investigations

Highreso Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku, Tokyo; CEO: Yoshiyuki Shikura) announced that its next-generation IP (Intellectual Property) monitoring service, 'IP PATROL' (tentative name), will be utilized by the Authorized Books of Japan (ABJ) for their investigations into illegal publishing websites (pirate sites).

To support ABJ's mission of 'proper protection of publications and intellectual property,' Highreso will provide analytical data derived from IP PATROL's AI automated monitoring technology, enabling faster and more comprehensive detection and analysis of illegal sites.

Background: The Evolution of Pirate Sites and the Role of IP PATROL
In recent years, pirate sites targeting Japanese manga and books have become increasingly sophisticated and fast-paced, utilizing AI for site construction and translation, as well as 'domain hopping' to frequently change URLs. Traditional manual monitoring and keyword-based detection have struggled to cover the vast number of illegal sites and collect evidence required for legal action.

ABJ is a private organization where publishers, telecommunications carriers, and rights organizations collaborate to combat piracy. By introducing IP PATROL, which leverages Highreso's GPU-based AI monitoring and advanced image/video analysis, ABJ aims to strengthen its investigation framework.

Key Solutions Provided by IP PATROL to ABJ:
- Autonomous AI Detection: Using GPU-accelerated image and text analysis, the system detects not only direct copies but also content shared on social media and anonymous bulletin boards. It assesses risk levels based on views and account influence. It also detects traces of manipulation in content altered by generative AI.
- Tracking Domain Hopping and Evidence Preservation: The system continuously records domain history, screenshots, and content evidence, providing data usable for legal actions and injunctions.
- Multilingual Global Monitoring: It conducts constant monitoring across a wide network, including overseas servers, social media, and bulletin boards, overcoming language barriers.

These solutions reduce investigation time from one month to approximately three days, allowing for high-level detection and information gathering in a shorter period. Furthermore, the system operates 24/7, enabling detection during holidays and nights when manual monitoring is difficult.
