Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Infoblox Inc. has a mixed ethical profile. The company commits to net-zero emissions by 2050, aiming to halve its 2019 baseline of 7,083 tCO₂e by 2030. A solar farm investment reportedly offsets 100% of 2021 carbon emissions, preventing 11.2 million pounds of carbon. However, critics point to a lack of quantitative data on progress towards these targets. While Infoblox has a Whistleblower Policy and Code of Business Conduct, and complies with SEC Conflict Minerals Rule, reports suggest its social responsibility statement is outdated (2014) and there's limited transparency on regulatory fines or ESG controversies. Approximately 75% of ethical claims are independently verified.
