OSS Content Moderation detects inappropriate content, such as pornography and politically sensitive material, in images, videos, and audio files stored in Alibaba Cloud Object Storage Service (OSS). This service automatically freezes detected non-compliant content by blocking its public access. This helps you mitigate compliance risks.
Features
- Incremental scan
Once enabled, Content Moderation automatically performs an incremental scan on new files as they are uploaded to an OSS bucket.
- Full scan
A full scan is a manually created, one-time task that scans all existing files in a specified bucket at a scheduled time.
