THREAT modelling is the foundational activity of shifting left, which basically means finding threats early into the SDLC. Finding threats early in the software development lifecycle helps you save costs in terms of time, finances and more importantly possible reputational damage.

Inducing Application Threat Modeling into SDLC process has its advantages for the security of the entire project. Most importantly when performing security assessments following the threat modeling approach gives the reviewer a comprehensive overview of the Application. This […]
