Ethical Profile

Mixed.

DarioHealth Corp. aims to improve health outcomes for chronic conditions, including for vulnerable populations, through its digital platform. However, the company has faced scrutiny regarding its tech security. Reports suggest seven vulnerabilities (with CVSS scores up to 8.7) were identified in its Android app and web server, which allegedly could allow access to private user data. While these issues have reportedly been resolved and users advised to update, critics point to the cleartext transmission of sensitive information to cloud infrastructure. The company provides limited public data on environmental impact, fair labor practices, or ethical sourcing beyond its core health mission.

and insecure storage of sensitive information,
