Digital Safeguarding Architecture
Libran Global Safeguarding
Safeguarding that works under pressure.
Most safeguarding failures aren't caused by bad policies. They're caused by systems that don't hold when it matters.
The gap between policy and practice.
Digital platforms have invested heavily in content moderation, enforcement, and incident response. These controls are necessary. But they share a limitation: by the time they engage, harm has already begun to form.
Risk enters systems early—through account creation, identity signals, early behaviour patterns, and interaction dynamics. If you're only governing risk at the point of content violation, you're managing symptoms, not causes.
We help organisations see where risk actually forms, and build systems that intervene before harm escalates.
We focus on architecture, decision-making, and escalation—not compliance theatre.
Three ways to work with us
Safeguarding Architecture Audit
£3,500 – £5,000A clear, system-level view of how safeguarding currently operates and where pressure points exist. Fixed scope, designed for clarity.
System Diagnosis & Reframe
Formal assessment against the Libran Model with facilitated leadership sessions. Moves from observation into structured evaluation.
Model Adoption Support
Time-bound implementation support for organisations adopting the Libran Safeguarding Model. Defined 90–120 day window with clean exit.
Front Door Theory
Traditional Trust & Safety asks: does this content break the rules?
Front Door Theory asks: is this interaction safe to continue?
It's a framework for understanding how risk enters digital systems—and how to intervene before harm escalates. Built on five principles that shift safeguarding from reactive enforcement to proactive architecture.
Practice, not theory.
I spent over a decade in social work and child protection. I've sat in case conferences, made safeguarding referrals, and watched systems fail children—not because people didn't care, but because the architecture couldn't hold.
When I moved into digital safeguarding, I saw the same patterns. Platforms with extensive policies but unclear escalation. Trust & Safety teams inheriting risk that had compounded long before it reached them.
I'm not here to make you fit into the system. I'm here to help you build one that works.
