    Security Testing with Red Teaming Elements
    Apr 18, 2025
    Does a cybersecurity assessment matter for a wholesale company that distributes food products? Absolutely yes. A distribution company initiated a scheduled security assessment of its office and web resources. Black-box testing with elements of Red Teaming revealed 21 vulnerabilities. The provided recommendations helped eliminate a number of risks.

    A regional distribution company wholesales food products within one of Ukraine’s oblasts. Around 150 employees are involved in the client's digital infrastructure.

    The specifics of the industry and the processing of confidential data make security a critically important issue for the company.

    Tasks and challenges
    The client initiated a scheduled security assessment of the office infrastructure and online resources, including the corporate website and its subdomains.
    The task was to identify potential vulnerabilities that could pose risks to a company operating in an industry with high security and trust requirements.
     
    • Conduct a scheduled security assessment of the company’s office and internet resources, including subdomains
       
    • Detect and identify potential vulnerabilities in the internal network and on the company's web resources
       
    • Prepare a detailed penetration testing report with technical findings and recommendations for security improvement

    Datami methodology: Security assessment of a distribution company
    Our approach

    Datami performed black-box testing with elements of Red Teaming. The assessment covered office infrastructure, Wi-Fi network, web resource, and subdomains. A standard toolset was used, including both automated and manual testing methods.

    The team simulated an attack without access to the company’s internal systems. Special attention was given to Wi-Fi, authentication, access control, as well as the detection of weak passwords and default configurations that could be exploited by attackers.

    Black-box
    Black-box
    This approach made it possible to simulate a real external attack and identify vulnerabilities without access to internal information.
     
    Key work stages and solutions

    During project implementation, the Datami team focused on an effective testing model, following a defined structure.

    After thorough preparation for the assessment of the targets, we simulated an attack, scanned the network and web resources.

    Based on the discovery and analysis of identified vulnerabilities, a report with recommendations to enhance security was prepared.

    • Preparation
      Review of objectives, definition of scope and testing scenarios, selection of testing tools.
    • Security testing
      Execution of black-box penetration testing with Red Teaming elements: assessment of the office, web resource, and subdomains.
    • Analysis and reporting
      Presentation of results in a detailed report: vulnerability categorization and remediation recommendations.

    Results and recommendations
    Fewer critical risks — more confidence
    Results and recommendations

    At the start of the project, the client’s digital infrastructure had several hidden weak points. Although the overall risk level was initially assessed as low, the Datami team identified 21 vulnerabilities during the black-box penetration test — including entry points into the internal network via weak passwords and default configurations.

    During a simulated attack, the team successfully cracked the office Wi-Fi password, which allowed scanning of the internal network. In the Afterlogic system, the testers discovered a default account that granted access to internal resources.

    Based on the test results, the client was advised to:

    1. Eliminate authentication and configuration vulnerabilities
    2. Strengthen office network protection, particularly Wi-Fi
    3. Implement strong password policies and access control
    4. Regularly conduct security testing using modern approaches

    The project was completed within the planned timeframe. Thanks to timely security testing, the identified vulnerabilities did not result in any critical incidents.

    Key project results

    Thanks to the scheduled assessment, the company received an objective view of its cybersecurity posture and actionable recommendations for strengthening the protection of its infrastructure and digital assets.

    Datami identified 8 medium, 12 low, and 1 informational vulnerability — this case study confirms the effectiveness and relevance of scheduled security assessments, even for companies with an apparently stable situation.
