threat-model

STRIDE threat modeling is a structured approach to identify and mitigate security threats by mapping spoofing, tampering, repudiation, information disclosure, denial of service, and elevation of privilege categories across application trust boundaries and data flows.

To apply STRIDE threat modeling to microservices and API integrations, provide your architecture document, identify assets and trust boundaries, and systematically apply STRIDE categorization to each component and data flow to uncover security vulnerabilities.

You need threat modeling for application security architecture when systematically identifying threats across web apps, microservices, or API integrations to ensure structured mitigation strategies are mapped to assets and trust boundaries.

The best way to identify spoofing and tampering threats in an API gateway is to map data flows and trust boundaries using STRIDE threat modeling to systematically categorize threats for each component and data store.

Yes, you need an asset inventory and architecture diagram or document before starting STRIDE threat modeling to accurately identify trust boundaries and apply threat categorization to each component and data flow.

Threat modeling can help mitigate security risks for web apps and data stores by providing structured STRIDE categorization and guidance on mitigation strategies for each identified threat across trust boundaries.
