CAC Corporation, a company working to bring about digital innovation in society and industry, will begin offering “Mamorimo,” an AI that monitors remote work environments and improves security for working from home, from Tuesday, January 14, 2025.
■Development Background
The introduction of telecommuting provides flexible working styles and is a measure to strengthen recruitment and prevent turnover, but for businesses that are contracted by clients, it is often difficult to obtain the consent of client companies due to security concerns such as whether someone will impersonate someone to operate a PC or peek at the screen.
“Mamorimo” was developed with a focus on these issues as an AI specialized for security measures when working from home.
■ Service Overview
“Mamorimo” uses AI to monitor the remote work environment. If AI detects impersonation, peeping, secret photography, leaving the desk, or camera interference from the PC camera image, it will lock the screen and acquire the camera image. The PC camera can be shared with existing web conferencing systems, so it can be operated without the hassle of adding new equipment or changing settings.
With the introduction of “Mamorimo,” work that would normally require working in an office or private room can be performed from home, allowing companies to create an environment where customers can confidently outsource work and expand the range of work that can be outsourced through telecommuting. It also provides remote workers with an environment where they can work safely from home.
■ Features of “Mamorimo”
1. Reliable privacy management and flexibility
The user’s facial image is stored only on the local PC, so there is no need to worry about it being leaked to the outside. In addition, the background of the camera image when an incident occurs is pixelated, and security incident detection settings can be finely tuned. By setting user groupings and administrators in charge, it is possible to operate the system by, for example, assigning a female administrator to a group of female users to check camera images.
2. Ease of implementation and low cost
Flexible implementation is possible, such as starting small with a minimum of 10 users. In addition, since it uses CAC’s in-house developed AI, it can be provided at a low cost, and in the case of large-scale implementation, it can be used more reasonably.
“Mamorimo” uses a ticket system that allows you to purchase tickets according to the number of users. Even if you do not use all the tickets, the unused tickets can be carried over to the next year. Therefore, it can be operated according to the size of the company and the frequency of use, and can be used efficiently even if the number of employees increases or decreases due to busy and slow business hours.
