About This Architecture

BioMarket's technical cartography maps a multi-site retail infrastructure spanning headquarters, 50+ stores, and a planned e-commerce platform, with critical security and operational risks highlighted across network, identity, data, and payment systems. The architecture relies on a single Fortinet UTM firewall at headquarters (SPOF 3), a unique Active Directory controller (SPOF 1), and an Orange Business Services MPLS WAN with no failover (SPOF 2), creating cascading failure points. Key vulnerabilities include unencrypted file server data, unfiltered internal communications, missing EDR on workstations, unverified firmware on 50+ store firewalls, and unevaluated PCI-DSS compliance for point-of-sale terminals. The planned e-commerce platform requires secure API integration with the product database, TLS 1.3 encryption, and WAF protection, while HR/SaaS solutions expose unprotected public links creating RGPD exposure. Fork this diagram to model redundancy improvements, add network segmentation, deploy encryption, and establish compliance baselines for biotech traceability (EU 2018/848) and payment card security.

What are the critical security risks and single points of failure in a multi-site retail biotech infrastructure with headquarters, 50+ stores, and planned e-commerce?

BioMarket's architecture contains three critical SPOFs: a single Fortinet UTM firewall at headquarters, a unique Active Directory controller, and an Orange MPLS WAN with no backup link. Additional risks include unencrypted file server data, unverified firmware on 50+ store firewalls, missing EDR on workstations, and unevaluated PCI-DSS compliance for POS terminals.
