Threat Modeling

Services - Application Security

Threat modeling is a security control performed during the architecture and design phase of the SDLC to identify and reduce risk within application.

The threat modeling activity helps you to:

  1. Identify relevant threats to your particular application scenario.
  2. Identify key vulnerabilities in your application design.
  3. Improve your security design.

A threat is a potential or actual undesirable event that may be malicious (such as DoS attack) or incidental (Information Disclosure). Threat modeling is a planned activity for identifying and assessing application threats and vulnerabilities.
