    Datami Methodology: Security Testing for DAVINTOO UKRAINE LLC
    Our approach

    Datami conducted a comprehensive security audit of the internal infrastructure of DAVINTOO UKRAINE LLC, covering the web platform, servers, and applications.

    Regular communication with the client — including weekly status meetings and interim reports — ensured effective task management and rapid incident response.

    To assess risks and identify vulnerabilities, we applied a gray-box approach, conducting tests with partial access to the client's technical documentation.

    We combined manual analysis techniques with automated scanning tools, utilizing Metasploit and Paros Proxy.

     

    Gray-box
    Gray-box
    The team had limited access to internal information — this approach allowed us to effectively combine an external perspective with an internal system analysis.
     
    Key project stages and solutions

    During the project, the Datami team carried out a highly accurate, full-scale security assessment of the LMS Collaborator web platform, servers, and applications. A gray-box approach was chosen for the penetration test, combining both automated and manual testing methods.

    The team made strategic decisions to enhance access control and strengthen the security of web applications.

    Key project stages:

     

    • Preparation
      Review of technical documentation, agreement on the approach, and identification of critical assets for testing.
    • Testing
      Execution of gray-box penetration testing using Metasploit, Paros Proxy, and manual auditing to identify vulnerabilities.
    • Analysis and Reporting
      In-depth analysis of identified risks, and preparation of a report with recommendations for risk mitigation and HIPAA compliance.

    Results and recommendations
    Results and recommendations

    At the start of the project, LMS Collaborator was assessed as having a high-risk level due to vulnerabilities in web applications and potential data leaks, posing a threat to HIPAA compliance.

    During the penetration test, the Datami team identified 15 vulnerabilities, 5 of which were critical. Some of these could have been exploited to gain unauthorized access to user accounts or extract sensitive information.

    The client received the following recommendations:

    1. regular security testing and updates;
    2. strengthening access control;
    3. cyber hygiene training for staff.

    After implementing the recommended measures, LMS Collaborator achieved full HIPAA compliance, and its overall security level significantly improved. Two-factor authentication and regular security updates were introduced. All critical vulnerabilities were eliminated within 24 hours of reporting, preventing data breaches, penalties, and reputational damage.

    The project was completed in 4 weeks, outperforming the industry average of 6 weeks.
