0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Ivoclar Vivadent operates a comprehensive and professionally designed website targeting dental professionals including dentists and technicians. The company offers innovative dental materials and digital equipment solutions, positioning itself as a leading enterprise in the healthcare sector. The website demonstrates strong digital maturity with modern JavaScript frameworks, extensive use of marketing and analytics tools, and a consistent brand presence. However, a critical security gap exists due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and enabled TLS protocols, which significantly impacts the security posture and user trust. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the site is content-rich and user-friendly but requires urgent security improvements to meet industry standards.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Ivoclar Vivadent is a major player in the dental healthcare market, providing a broad portfolio of dental materials and digital dental equipment. Their business model focuses on B2B sales to dental practices and laboratories, supported by educational services through the Ivoclar Academy. The company leverages a strong partnership ecosystem and digital marketing tools to maintain market leadership. The website content and navigation are tailored to professional users, emphasizing product highlights, educational content, and service offerings. The presence of multiple social media channels and marketing platforms indicates a mature digital marketing strategy.

Security posture

The website implements several security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection, which are positive indicators. However, the lack of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols represent a critical vulnerability, exposing users to potential data interception and trust issues. No explicit incident response or security policy pages were found, which suggests limited transparency in security governance. The site uses reputable third-party services for analytics and marketing but should enhance encryption and secure communication to protect user data and comply with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3) and disable deprecated protocols.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information to enhance transparency.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve compliance.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Vue.js framework and Pimcore CMS, hosted on Akamai CDN infrastructure. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Hotjar, Gigya, and Qualtrics. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices including meta tags and hreflang attributes. Performance data was not available, but the use of modern frameworks and CDN suggests moderate to good performance. Accessibility features are basic but present. The main technical risk is the missing SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols, which must be addressed to ensure secure user interactions.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
