SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams proactively identify and address security vulnerabilities in their system designs before code is written, preventing costly rework and security breaches.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • STRIDE Analysis: Systematically identifies threats across Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information Disclosure, Denial of Service, and Elevation of Privilege.
  • Threat Prioritization: Rates threats by exploitability and impact to focus mitigation efforts.
  • Requirement Derivation: Translates identified threats into actionable security requirements.
  • Output Generation: Produces both a detailed Threat Model document and a scannable Vulnerability Map.
  • Use Case: When designing a new microservice, use this Skill to conduct a threat model, ensuring potential security weaknesses are identified and addressed during the architecture phase.

Quick Start

Use the devsec-conducting-threat-modeling skill to perform a STRIDE analysis on the provided system architecture diagram.
