In 2025, Gen Digital completed a corporate carbon footprint assessment and publicly disclosed its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to the GHG Protocol, covering Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy) and Scope 3 (indirect emissions across the value chain).
However, Gen Digital has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.

In 2025, Gen Digital reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 9,844 tCO₂e using the market-based method and 8,430 tCO₂e using the location-based method.a
Compared to the previous year (2024), Gen Digital's Scope 2 emissions (Location-Based) fell by 30.19% in 2025, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its energy consumption.a
In 2025, Gen Digital reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method and using the location-based method.a
In 2025, Gen Digital reported 77,030 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2025 disclosure of Gen Digital includes a breakdown across 0 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2024, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2025, Gen Digital reported total Scope 3 emissions of 77,030 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2019, Gen Digital's Scope 3 emissions have increased by 71.18%, reflecting a rising long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2024), Gen Digital's Scope 3 emissions decreased by 11.19%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower indirect emissions from its value chain.a
In 2025, Gen Digital reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 414 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 3,935 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 0.11 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Gen Digital reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 0.11 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 0.2, this places the company below its industry benchmark, indicating it is more carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Gen Digital ranked 7 out of 24 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Gen Digital is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2025, Gen Digital reported a total carbon footprint of 85,874 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 13.46% decrease compared to 2024, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.a
The largest contributor to Gen Digital's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 89.7% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 9.82%.a
