STRIDE Threat Modeling: What You Need to Know
Threat modeling is the ultimate shift left approach. It can be used to identify and eliminate potential vulnerabilities before a single line of code is written. Employing threat modeling methodologies should be your first step toward building networks, systems, and applications that will be secure by design. STRIDE is a model of threats that can be used as a framework in ensuring secure application design.
STRIDE - Threat Modeling Methodology
Threat Modelling Tools Analysis 101 – OWASP THREAT DRAGON
Abstract
An interconnected world with an increasing number of systems, products, and services relying on the availability, confidentiality, and integrity of sensitive information is vulnerable to attacks and incidents. Unfortunately, the threat landscape expands and new threats, threat agents, and attack vectors emerge at all times. Defending against these threats requires that organizations are aware of such threats and threat agents. Threat modeling can be used as part of security risk analysis to systematically iterate over possible threat scenarios.
The motivation for this research came from the constantly growing need to acquire better tools to tackle the broad and expanding threat landscape present. One such tool to help to categorize and systematically evaluate the security of a system, product, or service, is threat modeling.
How to Approach Security Development Lifecycle (SDL)
Introduction to the Security Development Lifecycle (SDL)
Security Development Lifecycle is one of the four Secure Software Pillars. By pillars, I mean the essential activities that ensure secure software.
SDL can be defined as the process for embedding security artifacts in the entire software cycle.
