Threat Modeling

Understand, Mitigate, and Eradicate Potential Threats Against Your System

Threat modeling is an important part of secure software design, as it puts security at the forefront alongside performance, scalability, reliability, and maintenance.

A well-executed threat modeling program facilitates secure software development by leveraging an increased understanding of potential threats against a system, allowing you to assess the possibility, probability, potential harm, and priority level of each threat. 

A threat model contains an enumeration of threats, related mitigations and countermeasures, and risk priority and/or action items to address the threats by applying the mitigations and countermeasures determined.

The successful implementation of a threat modeling program reduces risk and cost by ensuring secure design early in the software development lifecycle (SDLC).

Our software security engineers have decades of experience building threat modeling programs from the ground up — developing the necessary processes, guides, and templates to ensure your team’s success. We are passionate about upskilling and enabling teams, and work closely with our counterparts to integrate threat modeling into the SDLC, conduct training, raise awareness, and collect metrics.

Six steps of a threat modeling process

Our Approach

  • Our experienced threat modeling facilitators will lead targeted training, as well as "train-the-trainers" sessions. We also provide you with self-serve training materials that meet the needs of your organization.

  • We provide materials to help guide any team within your organization to use threat modeling.

  • We support teams across your organization with the creation of threat models around critical systems and make ourselves available to answer questions as they arise.

  • We leverage our deep understanding of your organization to provide an analysis of current industry-leading threat modeling tools, recommend a solution that would best fit your needs, and assist in deploying and configuring the tool of your choice.

  • Our team will establish a way to track the progress and adoption of your threat modeling program, as well as detail the mitigations and countermeasures that were put in place as a follow-up to the threat models.
