What is threat modeling and how do you do it in practice?
Answer
Threat modeling identifies what can go wrong before shipping.
Steps:
- Define assets and trust boundaries
- List entry points and attackers
- Enumerate threats (STRIDE)
- Prioritize mitigations
It produces concrete actions: auth improvements, input validation, logging, least privilege, and secure defaults.
