Fortune 500 company integrates tracker protection into enterprise security platform to shield employees from unwanted data collection.

Customer

A Fortune 500 financial services company with over 50,000 employees sought to enhance their existing enterprise security infrastructure with comprehensive tracker protection to prevent sensitive corporate and employee data from being collected by third-party trackers during business operations.

Challenge

Enterprise employees routinely access thousands of websites and web applications as part of their daily work, unknowingly exposing the organization to pervasive third-party tracking. These trackers collect behavioral data, device fingerprints, and browsing patterns that can reveal sensitive business intelligence, employee activities, and proprietary research interests. Existing enterprise security tools focused on malware and phishing threats but lacked the specialized intelligence required to identify and block the vast ecosystem of advertising trackers, analytics services, and data brokers operating across the web. Building this capability internally would require dedicated teams to continuously monitor, classify, and update tracker definitions across millions of domains.

Solution

The company integrated Disconnect's tracker-classification data directly into their enterprise security platform, enabling network-wide protection for all employee web traffic. The integration leveraged our continuously updated tracker intelligence to automatically identify and block unwanted data collection across advertising networks, analytics providers, and data brokers. The solution deployed seamlessly alongside existing security infrastructure, requiring no changes to employee workflows or endpoint configurations.

Result

Within the first quarter of deployment, the integration blocked over 2 billion tracking requests across the corporate network, preventing the exfiltration of employee behavioral data and protecting sensitive business activities from third-party surveillance. Security teams gained visibility into previously undetected data flows, identifying several high-risk trackers embedded in commonly used business applications. Employee-reported browsing performance improved measurably as tracker blocking reduced page load times and bandwidth consumption.

Impact

Integrating Disconnect's tracker protection transformed our security posture from reactive threat detection to proactive privacy defense. We now have enterprise-wide visibility into tracking technologies that were invisible to our existing security stack, and our employees benefit from faster, more private browsing without any additional friction. The ROI was immediate, both in reduced data exposure risk and improved network performance.

Case studies reflect both specific customer engagements and illustrative use cases that demonstrate applications for Disconnect's API.
