La resolución AG/RES. 3031 (LIV-O/24) de la Organización de Estados Americanos (OEA) insta al Departamento de Seguridad Pública (DSP) de la Secretaría de Seguridad Multidimensional (SSM) de la OEA a analizar la posibilidad de unir esfuerzos con la Oficina de las Naciones Unidas contra la Droga y el Delito (UNODC) para establecer una Red Interamericana de Sobrevivientes de Trata de Personas. Como parte del proceso de conceptualización de esta Red y en línea con un enfoque basado en subregiones del continente, se llevó a cabo un mapeo para identificar acciones, prácticas prometedoras y lecciones aprendidas que contribuyan a fortalecer la participación de sobrevivientes en la formulación e implementación de políticas públicas y estrategias de respuesta a la trata de personas.

Towards Scalable Defenses against Intimate Partner Infiltrations

Intimate Partner Infiltration (IPI)--a type of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) that typically requires physical access to a victim's device, often manifests through digital surveillance, control, and monitoring. Unlike conventional cyberattacks, IPI perpetrators leverage close proximity and personal knowledge to circumvent standard protections, underscoring the need for targeted interventions. This paper, published by a group of scholars from three universities across the US, propose an Automated IPI Detection system that continuously monitors for unauthorized access and suspicious behaviors on smartphones. The paper's findings suggest that AID can serve as a forensic tool within security clinics, scaling their ability to identify IPI tactics and deliver personalized, far-reaching support to survivors.
