Threat modeling for a source code repository involves analyzing primary components, data stores, and entry points to document security risks. This skill extracts evidence from the repo to map trust boundaries and list plausible threats with risk ratings.

Evidence-based threat modeling anchors every security claim to repository evidence and explicit assumptions. This approach avoids generic checklists by extracting project-specific components and proposing concrete mitigations tied to actual component boundaries.

Yes, threat modeling can be applied to deployment paths and data stores within a repository. The process identifies assets, maps trust boundaries, and enumerates attacker goals specific to those deployment paths to yield component-level mitigations.

Mapping trust boundaries and entry points requires enumerating assets and attacker goals across the repository. This risk assessment identifies plausible threats aligned to component boundaries and proposes concrete mitigations for application security.

The best way to document plausible threats for AppSec is to map assets to trust boundaries and assign risk ratings. This yields concrete, component-level mitigations aligned with the repository's specific entry points and data stores.

Threat modeling for repositories works without external dependencies by anchoring claims to source-code evidence. It analyzes primary components and deployment paths directly to produce a tailored threat model with risk ratings.
