Fighting Harm Together: Meta's Cross-Industry Collaborations
Threat actors don't limit their activities to a single platform. They constantly evolve their methods and shift across services, sectors, and geographies to avoid detection.
At Meta, we've invested in building the tools and infrastructure to detect and respond to these threats — but we know that no company can fight them alone, and no one should have to.
So we've made that technology available to the entire industry. The systems we've built power many of the programs on this page, giving companies of every size — alongside governments, civil society, and law enforcement — a shared foundation to find bad actors, act quickly, and protect people. Behind every signal shared is a person protected — a scam stopped before it reaches someone's parent, an intimate image blocked before it spreads, a teen kept safer online.
How We Share Responsibly
When we share signals with partners, we set clear boundaries and follow strict processes to protect privacy, security, and human rights.
Legal Agreements
Information Sharing Agreements set clear expectations and boundaries for responsible data exchange.
Privacy Review
Cross-functional privacy experts evaluate potential risks before any sharing program launches.
Partner Verification
Partners undergo business verification, API review, and security assessments before accessing shared data.
Signal Sharing Programs
We participate in cross-industry programs that enable participating tech companies to share indicators about accounts, behaviors, and related signals that violate their policies — enabling the industry to detect, prevent, and respond to threats quickly.
Technology Built by Meta, Available to All
These programs work because of the technology beneath them. Meta built the core infrastructure for finding and stopping harmful content, and open-sourced it, so any platform can use it, free of charge.
