Threat Modelling

"Threat modeling is analyzing representations of a system to highlight concerns about security and privacy characteristics."

- The Threat Modelling Manifesto

Threat modelling aligns security design with business objectives, ensuring that systems support business capabilities without introducing unacceptable risk. This strategic approach prevents costly late-stage security discoveries that can delay business delivery and impact operational goals.

Our threat modelling process evaluates how security design decisions impact business operations and strategic objectives. We assess systems from business and security perspectives, ensuring that security controls enable rather than hinder business capabilities while protecting critical assets and processes.

We analyse how threats could impact business workflows, customer interactions, and operational continuity. This includes understanding whether security measures should focus on sophisticated threat actors or operational security risks, ensuring proportionate protection that supports business requirements.

Early threat identification protects business value and operational efficiency. Our approach ensures security investments align with business priorities, enabling confident deployment of systems that support organisational capabilities.
