What Is Threat Modeling and How Does It Impact Application Security?

Threat modelling is an operation that businesses follow to protect their intellectual property and confidential information. As a threat modelling consultant, we believe an ideal threat modelling plan can only be formulated when a threat modelling company like us brings together its lead developers and operation team together at one place.

When we do this, some teachable moments come as an outcome. It leads to education.  The management of the company is now aware of the current threats that might affect its application.  

As a threat response consultant, we also believe that companies don’t take their internal files transfer seriously. Now you would say why would we encrypt our files when we are circling the files on our own?

Our response would be why not? When you transfer confidential information from one computer to another in your company, a rogue employee might hack it and use the confidential information to destroy the company’s reputation, and hence files that are valuable need encryption at all costs.

How threat modelling impacts application security?

Threat modelling impacts application security in three ways. The first is improving the security posture, the second is defending applications from getting future attacks and the third is resolving vulnerabilities. Threat modelling improves the security posture of applications by identifying threats even before the code has been written. This minimizes remediation costs and defects.

Many security teams in companies create a threat response plan when they get affected. By that time the damage had been done. What if we tell you that a threat response plan created before an attack protects the application from cybercriminals? Yes, with the help of a threat response plan it’s easy for the security team to protect their application from future malicious attacks.

When the application is tested and rolled out, the customers report the bugs in the application and this is the time when the developers find the vulnerabilities in the application. With the help of threat response planning, the security team can identify loopholes in the application even before its being tested. This saves a lot of time that goes into testing and also saves cost.
