threat-modeling

To identify security threats during system design, apply STRIDE analysis across system boundaries and data flows, construct attack trees to map attacker paths, and document risk mitigations for actionable design improvements.

STRIDE-based threat modeling is a structured technique for categorizing security threats like spoofing and elevation of privilege across system components. Use it early in the design lifecycle to enable proactive risk reduction and secure design.

Yes, attack-tree analysis maps attacker paths and prioritizes mitigations, making it suitable for security architecture reviews and integrating threat modeling directly into CI/CD pipelines during system development.

Document risk mitigations aligned with ISMS policies by mapping identified STRIDE threats to compliance requirements, prioritizing mitigations through attack-tree analysis, and producing actionable threat and design improvement documentation.

The best way to start threat modeling for a new feature is to identify system boundaries, list plausible STRIDE threats, construct a simple attack tree to map attacker paths, and propose initial risk mitigations.
