FAQPage Schema
What is the Perseus methodology for Claude Code security assessments?

The Perseus methodology is a structured, phase-driven security workflow for Claude Code spanning Reconnaissance, Vulnerability Analysis, Exploit, and Reporting to ensure evidence-based deliverables.

How do I start a phased security assessment workflow with Claude Code?

To start a phased security assessment, instruct Claude Code to begin the Perseus security conversation and it will guide you through the four sequential phases from Reconnaissance to Reporting.

Can I skip phases in a structured security assessment workflow?

No, the Perseus methodology enforces a strict linear sequence across its four phases to ensure safe, evidence-based prompts and correct phase activation before advancing.

Does the Perseus workflow require any specific security tools or dependencies?

No dependencies are required to use the Perseus workflow; it operates as a guided conversational framework within Claude Code to structure security assessments and onboarding.

How do I onboard new team members to the Claude Code security workflow?

Onboard team members by initiating the Perseus security conversation, which provides a concise mental model of the four-phase methodology from Reconnaissance to Reporting.

What are the limitations of using a conversational phase-driven assessment workflow?

The Perseus workflow enforces a strict linear sequence and relies on conversational guidance, meaning it cannot skip phases and requires evidence-based prompts before advancing to the next stage.
