Community

A year ago, we launched <a href="https://www.gendigital.com/blog/impact/community/passion-to-purpose" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Passion to Purpose</a> with a simple idea: our people know where they can make a difference in their own communities. We began giving employees more ways to turn the causes they care about into action, with the support and resources to let them lead.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As we mark the program’s first anniversary, Team Gen has put that idea into action. Employees have supported the Special Olympics in the Czech Republic, created community and connection in the United States, and brought awareness to the importance of digital safety in Ireland.&nbsp;&nbsp;Different places. Different needs. One shared instinct to bring their heart and hustle to projects that respond to local initiatives.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Passion to Purpose shows what can happen when local knowledge meets employee passion and a company is willing to back both.&nbsp;

Our people know their communities&nbsp; Passion to Purpose starts with our employees. They see needs in their communities, know the organizations doing good work and bring ideas for how they can help.&nbsp;Gen helps turn those ideas into action through grants, volunteer time and company resources. The result is a program that can look different everywhere — because every community is different.&nbsp;Bringing local ideas to life&nbsp; We've seen employees across regions take part: &nbsp;<ul type="disc"><li data-list-item-id="e0b17e7858573ddb83d2978877f6e6caa">In the Czech Republic, a Gen-sponsored team participated in races with Special Olympics Czechia, an annual sporting competition that typically hosts 200 to 300 athletes with intellectual disabilities, helping them gain confidence and a sense of belonging.&nbsp;</li><li data-list-item-id="ef03c16d5e0e9d5152b53df00fbdd19a0">Thirty Gen employees in Tempe, Arizona, attended a Pride Month event hosted in partnership with The SEEN, a Phoenix-based nonprofit dedicated to creating community, support and a sense of belonging for BIPOC LGBTQIA+ individuals. The event was an opportunity for employee learning and fun, leaving many inspired to think about how to show up for one another, at work and beyond.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li data-list-item-id="ee4cf6142c082394591a88388b15cd43d">In Dublin, Gen co-sponsored an exclusive viewing of “Molly Vs THE MACHINES” with Cybersafe Kids, followed by a panel discussion. Gen employees also volunteered at the event, which opened the door to important conversations about navigating technology safely and responsibly.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>These projects, and many others over the past year, show why flexibility matters. Communities have different needs, and employees have different ways to respond – all of which can make an impact.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Giving brings us together&nbsp;&nbsp; Passion to Purpose starts in local communities, but it also connects Team Gen. Approximately 69% of employees participated in Gen's volunteering and giving programs last year — supporting causes they care about and doing it alongside colleagues around the world.&nbsp;Carrying our purpose forward&nbsp; One year in, Passion to Purpose has become more than a collection of local projects. It’s proof of what Team Gen can achieve when employees are trusted to lead and supported in acting on the causes they care about. As we head into year two, we're looking forward to seeing where Team Gen takes it next.&nbsp;Because the best ideas for supporting a community often come from the people who call it home.&nbsp;For more on how Gen team members make a difference in their communities, visit our <a href="https://s25.q4cdn.com/670692841/files/doc_downloads/socialimpact/Gen-Social-Impact-Report-2026.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">2026 Social Impact Report.&nbsp;&nbsp;</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;

What Happens When Employees Lead the Way

When someone’s personal information is stolen or a scam succeeds, the damage isn’t always measured in dollars. The experience can change how safe a person feels answering a call, shaking their confidence and leaving them facing stress, fear and anxiety long after the fraudulent charge is gone.&nbsp;World Mental Health Day, observed on October 10, is a reminder that well-being is shaped by every part of our lives, including our digital ones. If we want to understand the true impact of identity crime and online scams, we have to look beyond the balance sheet.&nbsp;<h2>The emotional toll&nbsp;</h2>A breached database, stolen phone or successful scam can have swift financial consequences, such as depleted savings or damaged credit.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;But the impact isn’t only financial. Research from the <a href="https://www.idtheftcenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/The-2026-ITRC-Trends-in-Identity-Report.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Identity Theft Resource Center</a> (ITRC) shows that the vast majority of identity theft victims report frustration, anxiety, worry and anger. Scam victims in particular experience feelings of guilt and shame, blaming themselves for a crime deliberately designed to manipulate them.&nbsp;Then comes recovery.&nbsp;&nbsp;Resolving identity crime can mean contacting multiple institutions, monitoring accounts, and proving that fraudulent activity wasn’t yours.&nbsp;&nbsp;The experience can affect well-being, daily life and your sense of control. As the real-world consequences of identity theft and scams have intensified in recent years, so, too, have the emotional ones.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Listening to the whole experience&nbsp;</h2>Understanding identity crime means listening to people who have experienced it.&nbsp;&nbsp;What made them feel overwhelmed? Where did they struggle to get help? What made the recovery process clearer or less isolating?&nbsp;The answers matter deeply. ITRC’s research shows that emotional support can improve a victim’s experience even if a crime is not fully resolved.&nbsp;Listening to people who have been through that experience can also help organizations understand where better tools, information and support could make a real difference.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>The tools to regain confidence&nbsp;</h2>Understanding that broader impact changes how we think about protection.&nbsp;At Gen, we work to help people live their digital lives safely and confidently. That means helping people understand emerging risks, protecting what matters and helping them recover when something does go wrong.&nbsp;&nbsp;Through <a href="https://lifelock.norton.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LifeLock</a>, people have access to identity theft protection and restoration support to help them navigate the steps that follow identity theft and regain a sense of control. And Gen’s <a href="https://fpi.gendigital.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fearless Planet Index</a> gives anyone a free, interactive view of the scams and threats shaping digital life around the world, giving people information they can use to better understand what is happening around them.&nbsp;&nbsp;We can't eliminate the emotional impact of digital crime. But we can help make protection and recovery less overwhelming by giving people useful information, practical tools and support when they need it. Helping people feel more informed and in control is an important part of helping them move forward with confidence.&nbsp;&nbsp;Read more about emerging cyber threats and trends in the latest <a href="https://www.gendigital.com/blog/insights/reports/threat-report-h1-2026" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gen Threat Report</a>.&nbsp;

Looking beyond financial loss to understand the emotional impact of scams and identity theft on everyday people

When a Scam Affects More Than Your Wallet

Scams have become one of the defining challenges of our digital lives. They are not just obvious red flags or suspicious emails anymore. They increasingly show up inside the places and interactions people already trust every day: a familiar platform or message that feels legitimate.&nbsp;Telling people to “watch out for scams” is no longer enough. The bigger question is: What helps people make safer decisions in the moment?&nbsp;That’s a question we're constantly exploring at Gen, and one our Global Head of Scam Research, Leyla Bilge, took to the <a href="https://gasa.org/global-anti-scam-summit-america-2026" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Global Anti-Scam Summit America</a> in San Francisco earlier this month. Leyla joined industry leaders from Amazon, Bank of America and Match Group for a discussion on what’s actually working in consumer education for scam prevention.&nbsp;&nbsp;The working group explored approaches ranging from gamified learning experiences and children's education programs to AI-powered tools and interactive chatbots. The common thread: moving beyond warnings and awareness campaigns to exploring new ways to help people recognize and respond to threats in real time.&nbsp;<h2>Scams are becoming a larger ecosystem of harm&nbsp;</h2>Today’s scams are rarely isolated incidents. What begins as a convincing message can quickly lead to stolen credentials, compromised accounts, financial loss or long-term identity fraud.&nbsp;&nbsp;Gen’s latest <a href="https://www.gendigital.com/blog/insights/reports/threat-report-h1-2026" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Threat Report </a>shows that scammers are moving closer to the places people already trust online. That makes scams harder to spot, and more likely to succeed. By the time something feels wrong, a scam may already be underway, and we may have clicked the link, approved the request or opened the door ourselves.&nbsp;The challenge isn’t just preventing scams. Protection can't only be about recognizing obvious warning signs. It has to help people make better decisions while an interaction is unfolding.&nbsp;<h2>Beyond awareness: protecting and educating consumers&nbsp;</h2>Knowing that scams exist isn't the same as knowing what to do when a convincing text, call or message appears.&nbsp;Effective scam education has to move closer to the moment of decision. That means helping people recognize manipulation, question what they're seeing and know what action to take before money, information or access changes hands.&nbsp;&nbsp;“As scams continue to evolve, the way we educate and protect consumers must evolve with them,” says Leyla. “The most effective education helps people spot manipulation early, make informed decisions in the moment and know what to do if something feels wrong.” &nbsp;At Gen, that belief shapes how we think about protection. We provide education online through our products and digital channels, invest in nonprofit partnerships and training programs, and work to make trusted guidance more accessible to consumers, schools and families around the world.&nbsp; &nbsp;We're also finding new ways to put Gen's threat intelligence directly into people's hands. The recently launched <a href="https://fpi.gendigital.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fearless Planet Index</a> gives anyone a live view of scams and threats emerging around the world, along with practical guidance for staying protected.&nbsp;<h2>Collaborating across industries to understand what’s working&nbsp;</h2>No company can solve scams alone. Scammers move seamlessly across platforms, financial systems, borders and industries. Our response has to do the same.&nbsp;Sharing evidence across industries can help organizations learn faster, scale what's effective and respond more quickly as threats evolve.&nbsp;Through organizations like GASA and other cross-sector partnerships, Gen is helping advance a broader conversation about how people can stay safer in an increasingly complex digital world. We're sharing what we're learning, learning from others and helping build a stronger collective response to scams. Because as scammers change their tactics, the way we protect people has to keep changing, too.&nbsp;Explore Gen’s <a href="https://www.gendigital.com/blog/insights/reports/threat-report-h1-2026" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">latest scam research and insights.</a>&nbsp;

Rethinking How We Fight Scams 

Sr Mgr, Corporate Marketing

Before we leave the house or head out of town, we check the weather. We look at the forecast then decide what to do next. What if we had a similar way to check the digital forecast and see where cyber threats are brewing before they land in your inbox, your feed or your phone?&nbsp;&nbsp;The <a href="https://fpi.gendigital.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fearless Planet Index</a> (FPI) does just that.&nbsp;&nbsp;The FPI transforms billions of real-world security signals from Gen Threat Labs into an interactive view of the scams and threats shaping life online around the world.&nbsp;&nbsp;It brings an immense stream of real-time threat intelligence into one place, helping more people see what’s emerging and better understand what they may encounter – before they encounter it.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>Threat intelligence, made practical&nbsp;</h3>Threat intelligence is the backbone of our work at Gen. Every day, Gen Threat Labs analyzes signals from around the world to identify emerging risks and understand how the threat landscape is evolving. That intelligence powers protection across our brands—Norton, Avast, LifeLock and MoneyLion — but also fuels a body of research and insights that help people better understand and prepare for the world around them.&nbsp;&nbsp;From our <a href="https://www.gendigital.com/blog/insights/reports/threat-report-h1-2026" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gen Threat Reports, which track emerging cyber threats and trends,</a> and the <a href="https://us.norton.com/blog/research/connected-kids-insights-report-2026" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Norton Insights Report</a>, which explores how technology is shaping people’s everyday lives, we regularly turn that research into practical, human-centered guidance people can use.&nbsp;&nbsp;The FPI is the next evolution of this work. It puts billions of signals and data points together in one place and provides a continuous, global view of the digital threat landscape, making it easier for anyone to understand what threats are emerging and changing over time.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>A digital forecast for everyday life&nbsp;</h3>The FPI is designed to make threat intelligence useful for anyone, anywhere. People can:&nbsp;<ul type="disc"><li data-list-item-id="ec0aabcc4802a7766ca6c1849b6ca31fe">Select a country to explore its most prominent scams, malware threats and identity alerts&nbsp;</li><li data-list-item-id="e4e0cbb1778d51ec7a21f789eafeda681">See whether each threat or alert has increased, decreased, remained stable or newly emerging since the day before&nbsp;</li><li data-list-item-id="e1a63fde38a491824a1255cbb324c8ee4">Open detailed profiles explaining each threat or alert, with guidance to help people protect themselves&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>It's a resource built not just for anyone trying to make sense of an increasingly complicated digital world. From security professionals, to parents, students, small business owners, it’s a timely way to see what threats are showing up where you live or are traveling to. Because we know understanding the risks is often the first step toward avoiding them.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>What the data is already telling us&nbsp;</h3>The FPI tracks threats across 245 countries and territories, providing a global view of the trends and patterns emerging in the threat landscape. The data is already painting a picture of how digital risk differs around the world:&nbsp;<ul type="disc"><li data-list-item-id="e5d90cffe31295ccea68f92b841a56fb5">Phishing is the most prevalent scam category globally, with 120M+ phishing attacks detected in the latest 30-day snapshot.&nbsp;</li><li data-list-item-id="ed73ae8e38ff93f55456b23863933229a">Online shopping scams are among the most common scams in the United States, with dating scams on the rise in Czechia, Germany and other parts of Europe.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li data-list-item-id="e779accffce75f2e23fbd0658ebc2752c">North America recorded the highest average digital risk (29.6%), followed closely by Europe (28.5%), Asia-Pacific (27.4%), Middle East &amp; Africa (25.6%) and Latin America (22%).&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>In addition to these high-level trends, people can dig into country-level findings and understand which threats are currently most prominent where they live, providing valuable context for the messages, offers and interactions they encounter online.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>Knowledge is part of protection&nbsp;</h3>People everywhere deserve more visibility into the digital world they navigate every day. The same intelligence that helps Gen understand the evolving threat landscape can also help people recognize risks earlier, strengthen their digital confidence and make safer decisions online.&nbsp;The Fearless Planet Index represents a new way of sharing that intelligence – bringing together our global threat expertise, research capabilities and consumer insights in one place.&nbsp;Because protection shouldn't stop with our products. By making this information freely available, we can help individuals, families, schools and organizations better understand the threats around them and what they can do about them.&nbsp;&nbsp;Explore the threats emerging in your part of the world at <a href="https://fpi.gendigital.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fpi.gendigital.com</a>.&nbsp;

AI is actively transforming the way people work. At Gen, it's also changing the way we think, learn and solve problems together. Staying ahead of cyber threats means more than building new technology. It requires a culture where people across the company are encouraged to experiment with new tools and ideas, challenge existing processes and discover new ways of working.&nbsp;That's the mindset behind Gen’s latest AI Sprint.&nbsp;Through a series of AI-focused events, including a global Hackathon and AI Learning Labs, employees across Gen came together to drive a deeper understanding of how AI can fuel curiosity, boost efficiency and enable us to deliver more effectively for the people we serve – and each other.These events weren’t simply about learning new tools. They were about creating space for curiosity, creativity and experimentation – allowing people to really break apart workflows and completely rebuild for the future of work.<h4>AI innovation comes from everywhere</h4>One of the most powerful outcomes of the AI Hackathon was seeing innovation emerging from every corner of the company. It brought together more than 600 Gen team members from across our global sites, forming 126 teams representing Marketing, Finance, Legal, HR, Engineering and many other functions. Together, they built AI solutions to tackle the real challenges they face every day.&nbsp;Some teams automated repetitive tasks. Others streamlined workflows or explored entirely new ways to overcome common obstacles. The projects were different. The mindset was the same: challenge assumptions, test new approaches and find better ways to work.The Hackathon demonstrated that innovation isn’t limited to technical teams or specific job functions. When employees are empowered to experiment, new ideas can come from anywhere.One example came from a winning team, Limitless Logic Minds. The team identified a challenge many employees faced: while people were increasingly building HTML dashboards, prototypes and other lightweight web applications, there wasn’t an easy way to securely host and share them across the Gen network. They used the Hackathon as an opportunity to develop an internal hosting platform that allows even non-technical employees to deploy and share HTML-based applications in a secure environment – making employee-created tools more accessible and scalable across teams.<h4>Building confidence and access to future-ready skills</h4>The Hackathon was just one part of our AI Sprint. Employees across our business – including Norton, Avast, LifeLock, MoneyLion and more – also participated in AI Learning Labs designed to help teams build confidence using emerging tools and technologies.Across our global sites and virtual communities, these peer-led sessions explored tools like Claude Code, Copilot, Glean and n8n while participating in discussions around responsible AI, data security, privacy and the changing world of search in the era of Answer Engine Optimization.The goal wasn't to turn everyone into AI experts. It was to help more employees understand how AI can support the work they already do every day – while encouraging them to think differently about what’s possible.&nbsp;<h4>A culture that keeps evolving</h4>AI will continue to evolve. So will the way we work. We know the future of work will be shaped by the people who are willing to learn, adapt and challenge the status quo.That’s why events like the AI Hackathon and Learning Labs matter. By creating opportunities for employees to experiment, learn and build together, Gen continues to cultivate a culture where innovation becomes part of our everyday work – and build a workforce ready to not just navigate through change, but lead through it.Learn more about how we’re investing in the talent of tomorrow in our<a href="https://www.gendigital.com/us/en/social-impact/social-impact-report/">&nbsp;2026 Social Impact Report</a>.

Summer break has arrived, but some lessons last well beyond the school year.&nbsp;Today’s students will make their first financial decisions in a world shaped by digital banking, AI and constant connectivity. Knowing how to budget, protect your identity, spot scams and make confident decisions online is becoming essential in&nbsp;navigating the future.That’s why Gen is proud to support&nbsp;<a href="https://lifesmarts.org/">LifeSmarts</a>, a free educational program of the National Consumers League, that&nbsp;helps middle and high school students build practical skills for life in an increasingly digital world.&nbsp;Through classroom learning, team competitions and real-world challenges, students gain knowledge in personal finance, consumer awareness, technology and digital safety.&nbsp;This year, Gen sponsored the&nbsp;<a href="https://lifesmarts.org/competitions/nationals/">2026 National LifeSmarts Championship</a>, where students from across the country came together to put those skills into practice.<h2>Learning for the world students actually live in</h2>The decisions young people face today are different than they were even a decade ago. From managing money and shopping online to applying for jobs and communicating with friends, the opportunities are significant – but so are the risks.&nbsp;LifeSmarts students learn how to evaluate financial choices, spot scams, protect personal information and become informed consumers. The program combines education with competition, creating opportunities for students to apply what they've learned in real-world scenarios.Today, LifeSmarts reaches more than 140,000 students annually&nbsp;through a network of schools, educators and student teams across all 50 states.<h2>Expanding access to opportunity</h2>The program plays a significant role in expanding educational opportunities in underserved communities, with three-quarters of participating public schools qualifying as Title I schools in 2024.For many students, attending the National Championship would not be possible without financial support.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.moneylion.com/">MoneyLion</a>, part of the Gen family of brands, sponsored alumni lodging scholarships that helped offset travel costs for graduates returning as Alumni Volunteers. Last year, 25 alumni applied for just four lodging scholarships so that they could return as Alumni Volunteers, illustrating both their commitment to LifeSmarts and the need for expanded alumni support and access.&nbsp;By helping more students and alumni attend, the program opens doors to new experiences, new connections and greater confidence in the skills that can shape their future education and career paths.<h2>Where financial literacy meets digital safety</h2>Financial decisions increasingly happen online. So do many of the risks. For today’s generation, financial wellness and digital wellness are increasingly connected.Gen and LifeSmarts are working together to develop&nbsp;<a href="https://lifesmarts.org/resources/">resources</a> that help students understand both sides of the equation – how to manage their money and how to protect themselves online. These resources cover topics including budgeting, saving, digital banking and protecting personal information.These lessons help students understand that financial wellness and digital wellness are closely connected—and that strong habits in both areas can have a lasting impact.<h2>Investing in future-ready skills</h2>The technology students use today will continue to evolve. The ability to make informed decisions, manage money and navigate digital life safely will remain essential.Programs like LifeSmarts help young people build those foundations early, preparing them to navigate an increasingly digital world with greater knowledge and confidence.At Gen, we’re committed to helping people live their digital lives safely and confidently. Supporting the students, educators and communities helping bring that work to life is one way we can help equip the next generation with the skills they need to thrive in the digital economy.

Building financial literacy and digital safety skills for the next generation

Scams have become one of the most complex challenges of the digital age. They move across texts, emails, phone calls, social media and financial accounts—often within minutes. Beyond compromising personal information, they can have lasting financial consequences for individuals and families. Helping people live safer digital lives also means helping protect their financial well-being. Protecting people from scams requires a different approach. One built on stronger partnerships, shared intelligence and a collective commitment to stay ahead of evolving threats.&nbsp;That’s why Gen has joined the <a href="https://www.staysafeonline.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">National Cybersecurity Alliance</a> as well as the <a href="https://scamprevention.aspeninstitute.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Leadership Group on Scam Prevention</a>, a new effort from the<a href="https://www.aspeninstitute.org/programs/financial-security-program/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Aspen Institute Financial Security Program</a>. We’re working alongside organizations including Amazon, Apple, Google, Microsoft and JPMorganChase to advance practical solutions that help people stay safer online and strengthen their financial security by responding to evolving threats. The goal is straightforward: help more people stay protected from scams.&nbsp;Stronger together&nbsp;Scams don't distinguish between banks, technology companies, telecommunication providers or retailers. Our response can’t either.&nbsp;Through the Leadership Group, Gen will contribute threat intelligence, consumer research and cybersecurity expertise while working alongside industry leaders to strengthen scam prevention, improve information sharing and identify practical ways to protect consumers. Together, we will explore how better data, stronger partnerships and more coordinated action can help stay ahead of rapidly changing scam tactics.&nbsp;&nbsp;Iskander Sanchez-Rola, our Senior Director of AI &amp; Innovation, recently joined the board of the <a href="https://www.staysafeonline.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA)</a>. The organization hosts annual public campaigns like Cybersecurity Awareness Month and Data Privacy Week, as well as regular working groups that convene cybersecurity leaders across industries to tackle the most pressing issues facing digital life today. These efforts enable Gen to forge partnerships and work cooperatively on solutions that help people stay safer and more confident in an increasingly connected world. &nbsp;&nbsp;Digital and financial life are closely linked. By joining together with our peers in FinTech and cybersecurity, we’re working to make digital and financial safety accessible, practical and empowering for everyone. &nbsp;Building on existing partnerships&nbsp;Joining NCA and the Aspen Leadership Group builds on work already happening across Gen to strengthen consumer protection through collaboration. &nbsp;Earlier this year, Gen sponsored the Aspen Institute’s <a href="https://www.aspeninstitute.org/events/2026-leadership-forum-on-inclusive-finance/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Leadership Forum on Inclusive Finance</a> where business leaders, nonprofit organizations and policymakers explored emerging challenges shaping financial security—from AI to prediction markets and affordability—and the partnerships needed to address them. &nbsp;One message came clear throughout: scams and fraud are no longer separate from financial health. Protecting people’s identities, finances and confidence online is essential to helping them build long-term financial resilience.&nbsp;We also continue our work as a Foundation Member of the<a href="https://gasa.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Global Anti-Scam Alliance</a>, collaborating with governments, consumer protection organizations, financial institutions, technology companies and cybersecurity peers to share insights, advance policy discussions and strengthen global responses to online scams.&nbsp;These partnerships complement the work happening across Gen's products, research and public policy efforts, helping bring practical insights to the people and organizations working to protect consumers' personal data, identities and financial information.&nbsp;Looking ahead&nbsp;Cybercriminals continue to adapt. So will we.&nbsp;The future of Cyber Safety and scam prevention won’t be built by any one company, industry or technology alone. It will be built through collaboration – with organizations working together, sharing knowledge and acting quickly as new threats emerge.&nbsp;Through partnerships like NCA and the Aspen Institute’s Leadership Group on Scam Prevention, Gen is helping strengthen that collective response—so more people can navigate digital and financial life with greater security and confidence.&nbsp;Learn more about Gen’s <a href="https://www.gendigital.com/us/en/public-policy/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">public policy</a> work.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Pride Month doesn't look the same everywhere. And that’s exactly the point. The experiences of LGBTQ+ communities vary across countries, cultures and communities. So do the ways people show their support.&nbsp;This year, Gen employees around the world took part in Pride Month activities—from creating resources for LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs online to developing messages of encouragement and belonging for queer communities in India. Different activities. Shared goal: creating an environment where people feel respected, supported and able to be fully themselves.&nbsp;<h2>Showing up in local communities&nbsp;</h2>In Tempe, we hosted a live event with guests from <a href="https://www.theseenlife.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The SEEN</a>, a local nonprofit that empowers and advocates for the BIPOC LGBTQ+ community, with people sharing personal stories and celebrating with a game of Jeopardy.&nbsp;

In Pune, team members created affirmative posters featuring messages of support, encouragement and inclusion with LGBTQ+ individuals.&nbsp;"Pride isn't just a month; it's a mindset. Our Pune team picked up brushes and painted what inclusion looks like. Every poster, a promise. Every color, a commitment. ” Pallavi Sharma Patil, Pune&nbsp;

Team members from all around the world volunteered virtually to develop financial aid resources for LGBTQ+ youth entrepreneurs. The goal: increase visibility for queer-owned businesses and connect aspiring entrepreneurs with tools for growth.&nbsp;&nbsp;While each initiative reflected different needs and perspectives, they shared a common belief: everyone deserves the opportunity to live, contribute and participate in their communities authentically. &nbsp;<h2>Building belonging all year long&nbsp;</h2>The work doesn't stop when Pride Month ends.&nbsp;Throughout the year, Communities@Gen, our employee resource groups, help employees connect around shared experiences, build networks and foster a culture of belonging. PROUD, Gen's LGBTQ+ employee community, plays an important role in that effort - creating opportunities and allies to learn from one another, build alongside each other and share ideas around inclusion across the company.&nbsp;Because when people can show up as they are, stronger communities follow.&nbsp;To learn more, visit our <a href="https://www.gendigital.com/us/en/social-impact/inclusion-and-belonging/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Inclusion and Belonging website</a>. &nbsp;
