Services: Internal Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Test (VAPT), Security Awareness

In early 2025, a leading shipping company approached TEKNOLOGIIA to evaluate both its technical cybersecurity posture and the security awareness of its employees. Despite having an existing cybersecurity solution from another provider, the company wanted to ensure it could withstand modern attack techniques.

Challenge / Pain Point

The company needed answers to critical questions:

  • Are our systems truly secure against real-world attacks?
  • Could human behavior inadvertently create security gaps?
  • Are our employees aware of potential cyber threats and how to prevent them?

The goal was a comprehensive assessment that went beyond automated scans, revealing both technical vulnerabilities and human risk factors.

Our Approach

We conducted a structured, realistic, and non-disruptive VAPT engagement with three phases:

  1. Observation & Behavior Mapping
    • Studied how employees interacted with technology and handled daily tasks.
    • Focused on identifying human behaviors that could be exploited, including workstation handling, password practices, and access patterns.
  2. Simulated Intrusion
    • Leveraged observed gaps in real-world scenarios to simulate attacks.
    • Deployed authorized penetration testing techniques to demonstrate potential risks, including lateral movement and privilege escalation across the network.
    • Tested the effectiveness of existing security solutions, highlighting weaknesses.
  3. Remediation & Awareness
    • Collaborated with IT and executive teams to patch vulnerabilities and reinforce endpoint security.
    • Implemented improved workstation lockdown policies and physical security measures.
    • Conducted tailored security awareness sessions for all staff levels—from executives to warehouse and delivery personnel.
    • Introduced new security processes and controls aligned with industry best practices.

Results & Impact

  • Comprehensive security hardening: Critical vulnerabilities patched, endpoint security strengthened, and policies updated.
  • Improved employee awareness: Staff trained to recognize and prevent cyber threats, reducing human risk.
  • Compliance achievements: The company earned multiple cybersecurity compliance certifications within months.
  • Resilient operations: The organization now maintains a secure, modernized environment capable of withstanding advanced cyberattacks.

This engagement transformed a routine assessment into a long-term security improvement program, delivering measurable, sustainable protection for both technology and people.
