Network Security White Papers
Threat Modeling for the Management of Risk
Overview Although vulnerabilities, hackers and exploits are compelling reasons for a focus on application security, they have been overshadowed by compliance issues in the minds of corporate decision makers. The myriad regulations and standards are imposing stricter IT security requirements. Application security has reached a pinnacle of importance in the context of regulatory compliance. Risk management is a key requirement of many of these regulations and is one of the most difficult processes to complete. The difficulty lies in the fact that although the high-level threat is generally well understood (breach of customer data, denial of service etc.), the underlying causes and sub-threats that can lead to it remain obscure.
