What phase is the threat model in?

Threat modeling is an easy and cost-effective way to implement security in the design phase of the SDLC, before any code ever gets written.

What is the process of threat modeling?

Threat modeling is a procedure for optimizing application, system or business process security by identifying objectives and vulnerabilities, and then defining countermeasures to prevent or mitigate the effects of threats to the system.

At which times is it important to create update the threat model for a product?

Every time there is a change in the system's architecture. After a security incident has occurred or new vulnerabilities are introduced.

When should threat modeling be initiated?

While threat modeling should take place as early as possible, it's still a very useful activity no matter how close an application is to deployment or has been in production. While an app may have reached the end of its development cycle, you can still pick up threat modeling within the support cycle.

What is the ultimate output of the threat model process?

The output of the threat modeling process is a document which details out the threats and mitigation steps.

Which of the following is a process for assessing and documenting the threats associated with an application?

Threat modeling is the process of analyzing various business and technical requirements of a system, identifying the potential threats, and documenting how vulnerable these threats make the system.

In which phase of the Devsecops lifecycle do we do threat Modelling?

To measure efficacy, track the number of issues detected and fixed prior to committing code and ensure developers can pinpoint known security weaknesses. In addition, require threat model as a step in the application deployment process. This ensures it remains part of the development lifecycle.

What is a threat in threat model?

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

Where in the software lifecycle does threat modeling take place?

Generally, threat modeling is done at an early stage in the software development lifecycle but it can be performed at any stage whenever there is some change in the architecture or design.

What should be considered when identifying a threat?

When assessing the impact from any single threat, two factors are generally considered: Likelihood, or how probable is it for a risk event to occur; and outcome, what would be the overall ramifications if that risk event occurred. All threats should be evaluated in this manner on a case-by-case basis.

What is a threat assessment report?

A threat assessment is an evaluation of events that can adversely affect operations and/or specific assets. Historical information is a primary source for threat assessments, including past criminal and terrorist events. A comprehensive threat assessment considers actual, inherent, and potential threats.

What is the first step in the threat assessment process?

The first step in creating and implementing the Threat Assessment process in your school is to have a clear idea of the purpose, capabilities, and limitations of threat assessment. In other words, knowing what it IS, and what it IS NOT.
