Overview
Why Do You Need Threat Modeling Services?
A well-documented threat modeling process will be useful in defending the security posture. It is one of the most effective ways to provide a clear line of sight of applications of a computer system. This assists our team in verifying security efforts and documenting them. This is how addressing your problems becomes much easier for us. We also spot flaws your code may carry to review them carefully. Another important aspect of threat modeling is evaluating new threats that might come your way. However, our experts make sure we work under your budget and still perform all testing methods to prevent costly recoding.
Threat Modeling Services We Offer
Threat Identification
Modeling a system requires threat identification to notice which of them ranks first. For this, we gather a wealth of data and methods to make sure it is easily disposable in the end. STRIDE is one of the best illustration procedures in this step we use.
System Modeling
We understand how the system will be built to know what threats can evade it. It is an important foundation of our approach. The major part of this is creating data flow diagrams (DFDs) to visually model a system. We create it using simple symbols with threat modeling tools.
Review And Validation
After mitigation has been done, our engineers review what work has been done so far and whether it was worth it. Stakeholders, along with other security teams, are responsible for this. We focus on threats identified, mitigation, formal documentation, and testing of mitigation.
Our Approach.
Our process of threat modeling starts with defining the scope with your team. We break down the analysis method and work with all departments to model your application or software. The whole team at Cybersecurity 24*7 works on understanding types of analysis that should be done according to the mode of threat. With this, we create a visual interpretation of the data collected after this review.
After managing a review, we move on to finding the major components of your system that are prone to vulnerabilities. Our focus lies on your data warehouse, application server, thick client, and database. We apply context to the diagram created to understand what software assets need more attention. Your security controls and their locations also become our priority as we move further with this process. The moment modeling is done perfectly, our experts will find out what could be wrong with the system.
We refer to capec, STRIDE, and att&ck as threat models to provide the best cybersecurity testing services. Other methods to check threats include producing a list of vulnerabilities or attacks and understanding the attacker’s actions. Types of access they have, their location, ways to reach an asset, how they defeated security control, and more such strategies work tremendously for threat modeling.
Another best approach for this service is creating a traceability matrix. For this, the team makes a list of potential goals cyberattackers have and want to achieve in the future. We understand their ways and methods to achieve them. For further risk prevention, a list of the security controls your company has incorporated into the system is made.
The modeling process has two parts. One of these is designing a diagram that includes components but is in a control flow graph. It has become an important part of threat modeling as it shows the paths required for the execution of a strategy. Another part is finding some brainstorming methods that can be trustworthy enough to identify attacks.
The final step is to take action to minimize the threat that will materialize. We eliminate the components of your application that cause these threats to the overall computer. Moreover, our testing team transfers the responsibility to the experts responsible for managing threat control.
