What is Threat Modeling
and Why It Matters

Threat Modeling is a structured way to identify design-level risks before they become costly problems. This includes defining potential threats, identifying issues that could arise from these threats, and developing mitigation strategies.
 
Using models like STRIDE and DREAD, you can:
  • Discover vulnerabilities early in feature design
  • Prioritize security based on real risk
  • Reduce the time and cost of rework or remediation later
 
Use this template with your team, during planning and design, to build more resilient software from the ground up.
