To start STRIDE threat modeling, run an analysis on your system architecture diagram to produce a baseline threat list. The process categorizes risks into Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information Disclosure, Denial of Service, and Elevation of Privilege.

STRIDE threat analysis is a structured method to identify security threats by category. You should use it during security design reviews, threat modeling sessions, and security training across software systems, cloud architectures, and networked applications.

Yes, you can apply STRIDE analysis to cloud architectures and networked applications. The approach provides templates and checklists to systematically map threats across diverse software systems during design reviews.

You document security threats using provided templates that support threat enumeration, risk scoring, and mitigations. Code scaffolds help categorize threats into the six STRIDE categories and guide the documentation of mitigation strategies.

The best way to enumerate threats is by applying STRIDE templates and checklists during your design review. This systematically maps threats by category and generates reusable artifacts to accelerate the documentation of risks and mitigations.
