Threat Modeling with STRIDE
Fast-Track Hands-on Bootcamp
In an age of advanced cyber threats, proactive defence starts with intelligent design. This immersive hands-on bootcamp will equip you with practical experience in Threat Modeling using STRIDE, a framework trusted by top security architects and auditors worldwide.
You’ll learn to identify vulnerabilities before code is written or deployed, ensuring your systems are secure by design, not by chance.
By the end of this course, you'll be able to:
- Understand the fundamentals of threat modeling and its role in secure design
- Apply the STRIDE methodology to systematically uncover threats
- Create data flow diagrams and mark trust boundaries effectively
- Conduct structured threat analysis sessions across complex systems
- Develop prioritized mitigation strategies based on risk severity
- Document and communicate your findings for audit and compliance
