Threat Modeling Methodologies
There are six common threat modeling methodologies
used by cybersecurity experts to access and prioritize
threats to IT assets. They are Vast, Stride, Trike,
Octave, Dread, and Pasta.

STRIDE
Stride is a threat model developed by Microsoft, and
it helps cybersecurity experts to categorize threats
into six classes. The classes are known as spoofing,
tampering, information disclosure, repudiation,
denial of service, and privilege escalation.

DREAD
Microsoft also created this threat model, and it is
used to determine the severity of a threat. It uses a
scale to rank threats into five categories. They are
damage potential, reproducibility, exploitability,
affected users, and discoverability.

PASTA
PASTA is an acronym for the Process for Attack
Simulation and Threat Analysis. PASTA offers a
risk-centric framework that offers a dynamic threat
scoring process. This threat model incorporates
business needs and technical requirements for
developing an asset-centric mitigation framework
to analyze threats from an attacker’s perspective.
Pasta comprises seven stages: Defining objectives, defining
the technical scope, application decomposition, threat
analysis, weaknesses analysis, attack modeling, and risk &
impact analysis.

TRIKE
Trike methodology follows a risk management,
defensive approach for threat modeling that
differentiates it from other threat modeling
methodologies. It is a systemic and systematic
evaluation of the security risks of a system by
examining all potential risks in the system.

VAST
The Visual, Agile, and Simple Threat modeling
methodology scales the threat modeling process
across the infrastructure for the entire software
development life cycle, integrating with agile and
DevOps practices. VAST is enterprise-focused and
provides actionable outputs for the different needs
of every stakeholder.

OCTAVE
The Operationally Critical Threat, Asset, and
Vulnerability Evaluation (OCTAVE) is a framework
for identifying and managing information security
risks. It starts with identifying the information on
assets that are critical to the organization, threats
to those assets, and the vulnerabilities that may
expose those assets to the threats. This helps the
organization design and implement a protection
strategy to reduce the overall risk exposure of its
information assets.

The document discusses penetration testing and provides details on: 1. The 5 stages of a penetration test: planning and reconnaissance, scanning, gaining access, maintaining access, and analysis and WAF configuration. 2. Penetration testing methods like external testing, internal testing, blind testing, and double-blind testing. 3. How penetration testing and web application firewalls (WAFs) work together, with testers using WAF data to find vulnerabilities and WAFs then being updated based on test results.

Application Threat ModelingRochester Security Summit

As delusions of effective risk management for application environments continue to spread, companies continue to bleed large amounts of security spending without truly knowing if the amount is warranted, effective, or even elevating security at all. In parallel, hybrid, thought-provoking security strategies are moving beyond conceptual ideas to practical applications within ripe environments. Application Threat Modeling is one of those areas that, beyond the hype, provides practical and sensible security strategy that leverages already existing security efforts for an improved threat model of what is lurking in the shadows. Tony UcedaVelez, Managing Director An experienced security management professional, Tony has more than 10 years of hands-on security and technology experience and is a vocal advocate of security process engineering – a term that describes the design and development of secure processes and controls working symbiotically to create a unique business workflow. Tony currently serves as Managing Director for an Atlanta based risk advisory firm that focuses on security strategy and delivering effective means for risk mitigation and security process engineering. He has worked and consulted for the Fortune 500, as well as federal agencies in the U.S. on the topic of application security and security process engineering.

Application Threat ModelingMarco Morana

This document discusses application threat modeling (ATM) as a systematic approach to identifying security risks in software applications. It describes how ATM can be used at different stages of the software development lifecycle, from requirements to design to testing. The key steps of ATM include decomposing the application, identifying threats and vulnerabilities, analyzing attack vectors, and determining mitigation strategies. ATM helps prioritize risks and supports decision making around risk acceptance, avoidance, or mitigation.

Security Compliance Web Application Risk ManagementMarco Morana

The document discusses the rise of threat analysis and fall of compliance in mitigating web application security risks. It argues that while regulatory compliance aims to improve security, many compliant organizations have still suffered major data breaches. The document advocates applying threat modeling techniques like attack tree analysis to understand likely cybercrime threats and how they could exploit vulnerabilities. This helps identify targeted security measures to implement in applications and architecture.

This presentation discusses the importance of threat Modeling. This presentation also discusses about different ways to perform threat modeling. This threat modeling should be done during the design phase of the application development. The main aim of the threat modeling is to identify the import assets or functionalities of the application and to protect them. Threat Modeling cuts down the cost of application development as it identifies the issues during the design phase. In this presentation we also discuss about basics of Mobile Threat Modeling. This presentation mainly concentrates on STRIDE and DREAD.

Attack modeling vs threat modellingInvisibits

Threat modeling involves identifying potential threats to a system from the defender's perspective in order to mitigate risks. It includes identifying system assets, potential threats using frameworks like STRIDE, and how threats could be realized. Attack modeling takes the attacker's perspective to show how an attacker would exploit vulnerabilities to compromise a system. It involves identifying vulnerabilities, rewards for attacks, and ways to exploit vulnerabilities. While threat modeling is important for protection, attack modeling helps understand attacks more fully to improve security.

Cyber security involves implementing layers of security and protection against digital attacks across computers, devices, systems, and networks. Organizations use frameworks to detect and identify threats, protect assets, and recover from attacks. There are various types of cyber security threats including cybercrime, cyberterrorism, and cyberattacks. Performing risk assessments is important to understand potential security risks and impacts. Assessments involve identifying risks, analyzing likelihood and impacts, developing controls, documenting processes, and ongoing monitoring. Common security risks include viruses/malware, phishing, ransomware, and denial of service attacks. Organizations should use various security testing methods like audits, penetration testing, and vulnerability scanning to regularly evaluate security weaknesses.

Integrating Threat Modeling in Secure Agent-Oriented Software DevelopmentWaqas Tariq

The main objective of this paper is to integrate threat modeling when developing a software application following the Secure Tropos methodology. Secure Tropos is an agent-oriented software development methodology which integrates “security extensions” into all development phases. Threat modeling is used to identify, document, and mitigate security risks, therefore, applying threat modeling when defining the security extensions shall lead to better modeling and increased level of security. After integrating threat modeling into this methodology, security attack scenarios are applied to the models to discuss how the security level of the system has been impacted. Security attack scenarios have been used to test different enhancements made to the Secure Tropos methodology and the Tropos methodology itself. The system modeled using this methodology is an e-Commerce application that will be used to sell handmade products made in Ecuador through the web. The .NET Model-View-Controller framework is used to develop our case study application. Results show that integrating threat modeling in the development process, the level of security of the modeled application has increased. The different actors, goals, tasks, and security constraints that were introduced based on the proposed integration help mitigate different risks and vulnerabilities.

Avoiding The Seven Deadly Sins of ITEnvision Technology Advisors

The document outlines seven "deadly sins" of IT security: 1) Ignorance - thinking threats can be fully prevented; 2) Unpreparedness - relying on single defenses; 3) Neglectfulness - only scanning for vulnerabilities without remediation; 4) Short-sightedness - not planning for future threats; 5) Pride - not measuring security metrics; 6) Arrogance - relying too heavily on human knowledge; 7) Avoidance - thinking better security is too resource-intensive. It recommends a holistic security strategy using automation to prevent, detect, and respond to threats through continuous monitoring, vulnerability assessment, and remediation.

Software Design Level Vulnerability Classification ModelCSCJournals

Classification of software security vulnerability no doubt facilitates the understanding of security-related information and accelerates vulnerability analysis. The lack of proper classification not only hinders its understanding but also renders the strategy of developing mitigation mechanism for clustered vulnerabilities. Now software developers and researchers are agreed on the fact that requirement and design phase of the software are the phases where security incorporation yields maximum benefits. In this paper we have attempted to design a classifier that can identify and classify design level vulnerabilities. In this classifier, first vulnerability classes are identified on the basis of well established security properties like authentication and authorization. Vulnerability training data is collected from various authentic sources like Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE), Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) etc. From these databases only those vulnerabilities were included whose mitigation is possible at the design phase. Then this vulnerability data is pre-processed using various processes like text stemming, stop word removal, cases transformation. After pre-processing, SVM (Support Vector Machine) is used to classify vulnerabilities. Bootstrap validation is used to test and validate the classification process performed by the classifier. After training the classifier, a case study is conducted on NVD (National Vulnerability Database) design level vulnerabilities. Vulnerability analysis is done on the basis of classification result.

YSPH VMOC Special Report - Measles Outbreak Southwest US 5-3-2025.pptxYale School of Public Health - The Virtual Medical Operations Center (VMOC)

A measles outbreak originating in West Texas has been linked to confirmed cases in New Mexico, with additional cases reported in Oklahoma and Kansas. The current case count is 817 from Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Kansas. 97 individuals have required hospitalization, and 3 deaths, 2 children in Texas and one adult in New Mexico. These fatalities mark the first measles-related deaths in the United States since 2015 and the first pediatric measles death since 2003. The YSPH Virtual Medical Operations Center Briefs (VMOC) were created as a service-learning project by faculty and graduate students at the Yale School of Public Health in response to the 2010 Haiti Earthquake. Each year, the VMOC Briefs are produced by students enrolled in Environmental Health Science Course 581 - Public Health Emergencies: Disaster Planning and Response. These briefs compile diverse information sources – including status reports, maps, news articles, and web content– into a single, easily digestible document that can be widely shared and used interactively.

Analytic accounts are used to track and manage financial transactions related to specific projects, departments, or business units. They provide detailed insights into costs and revenues at a granular level, independent of the main accounting system. This helps to better understand profitability, performance, and resource allocation, making it easier to make informed financial decisions and strategic planning.

To study the nervous system of insect.pptxArshad Shaikh

The *nervous system of insects* is a complex network of nerve cells (neurons) and supporting cells that process and transmit information. Here's an overview: Structure 1. *Brain*: The insect brain is a complex structure that processes sensory information, controls behavior, and integrates information. 2. *Ventral nerve cord*: A chain of ganglia (nerve clusters) that runs along the insect's body, controlling movement and sensory processing. 3. *Peripheral nervous system*: Nerves that connect the central nervous system to sensory organs and muscles. Functions 1. *Sensory processing*: Insects can detect and respond to various stimuli, such as light, sound, touch, taste, and smell. 2. *Motor control*: The nervous system controls movement, including walking, flying, and feeding. 3. *Behavioral responThe *nervous system of insects* is a complex network of nerve cells (neurons) and supporting cells that process and transmit information.

6 Most Popular Threat Modeling Methodologies

1. 6 OF THE MOST POPULAR THREAT MODELING METHODOLOGIES

2. What Is Threat Modeling? Threat modeling is the structured process to identify and enumerate potential cyber threats, like the defense mechanisms or weaknesses in a system, and provide security mitigations.

3. Steps to Make a Threat Model Identify security objectives. Identify the asset and external dependencies. Identify trust zones. 1 3 2 Identify potential threats and weaknesses. 4 Document the threat. 5

4. Threat Modeling Methodologies There are six common threat modeling methodologies used by cybersecurity experts to access and prioritize threats to IT assets. They are Vast, Stride, Trike, Octave, Dread, and Pasta.

5. STRIDE Stride is a threat model developed by Microsoft, and it helps cybersecurity experts to categorize threats into six classes. The classes are known as spoofing, tampering, information disclosure, repudiation, denial of service, and privilege escalation.

6. DREAD Microsoft also created this threat model, and it is used to determine the severity of a threat. It uses a scale to rank threats into five categories. They are damage potential, reproducibility, exploitability, affected users, and discoverability.

7. PASTA PASTA is an acronym for the Process for Attack Simulation and Threat Analysis. PASTA offers a risk-centric framework that offers a dynamic threat scoring process. This threat model incorporates business needs and technical requirements for developing an asset-centric mitigation framework to analyze threats from an attacker’s perspective. Pasta comprises seven stages: Defining objectives, defining the technical scope, application decomposition, threat analysis, weaknesses analysis, attack modeling, and risk & impact analysis.

8. TRIKE Trike methodology follows a risk management, defensive approach for threat modeling that differentiates it from other threat modeling methodologies. It is a systemic and systematic evaluation of the security risks of a system by examining all potential risks in the system.

9. VAST The Visual, Agile, and Simple Threat modeling methodology scales the threat modeling process across the infrastructure for the entire software development life cycle, integrating with agile and DevOps practices. VAST is enterprise-focused and provides actionable outputs for the different needs of every stakeholder.

10. OCTAVE The Operationally Critical Threat, Asset, and Vulnerability Evaluation (OCTAVE) is a framework for identifying and managing information security risks. It starts with identifying the information on assets that are critical to the organization, threats to those assets, and the vulnerabilities that may expose those assets to the threats. This helps the organization design and implement a protection strategy to reduce the overall risk exposure of its information assets.
