Enterprise Threat Modeling Service
Threat modeling is a high-level process and security analysis technique to assess the critical risks pose towards business assets in your organization. It helps the development and management teams to identify and prioritized the present threats before the product is executed in the production environment. Threat modeling can be applied on either existing applications or throughout the development lifecycle as an essential key component of risk management process. Today many proactive organizations prefer to integrate security at each stage of SDLC as this helps them to quantify and visualize the threats within the application. Cipher Storm enterprise threat modeling service provides a cost-effective and time saving solution by helping the organizations to hardened their system builds and reviews.
Threat modeling process put a step forward in collaboration between designs, implementation, testing activities and the risk assessment process and generates a targeted asset which can be used when new threats are identified. Usually this process requires active inputs from the client directly or from the available documentation to identify the system assets, generating a system overview, identification of existing threats using STRIDE (Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information Disclosure, Denial of Service, Escalation Privileges) model and their classification using DREAD (Damage, Reproducibility, Exploitability, Affected Users and Discoverability) model. This helps in formulation of necessary actions required and recommendations to prevent the application threats before any major security incidents occur.
Threat Modeling Process
CS consultants communicate closely with your development and management team to identify the full range of security threats within your application. Our process is defined below:
Security and System Architecture Requirements
Analyze the application needs from security perspectives.
Assets Identification
Identify and collect the information on available business assets which are security critical.
Access Matrix
Map each role in the system or application with its allocated resources.
Threat Identification
Threats identified within each specific asset will be categorized under CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability) triads.
Simulate the attack scenario based on identified threats
Apply all combination of attacks such as, input validation, API abuse, Time and State, Trust violation, Information leakage and more.
Test the attack conditions
Testify all possible conditions under specific attack scenarios.
Reporting
A final report detailing system-wide components, assets, access roles, identified threats, threat trees for the list of attacks and the recommendations on appropriate countermeasures will be provided to highlight remediation criteria.
