ThreatModeler
Introduction to ThreatModeling
ThreatModeler software was created to address the shortcomings of data flow diagrams, bring threat modeling capabilities in-house and make it scalable. The vision for ThreatModeler software is to be able to model ALL the threats, automatically, with no security expertise required. And they think they’ve done that.
Threat modeling is a rapidly growing requirement for many industries and is now a vital practice for Security Practitioners, Architects, Developers and all those involved in the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC). Through the ThreatModeler Certified Practitioner Program you can get certified as a practitioner on the ThreatModeler platform and earn the Introduction to Threat Modeling badge. Complete the course to learn how to produce complete threat models for your applications across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid environments.
