D-TA Threat Assessment

Short description: This practice focuses on identifying potential threats in applications.

The Threat Assessment (TA) practice focuses on identifying and understanding project-level risks based on the functionality of the software being developed and characteristics of the runtime environment. From details about threats and likely attacks against each project, the organization as a whole operates more effectively through better decisions about prioritization of initiatives for security. Additionally, decisions about risk acceptance are more informed and therefore better aligned with the business.

By starting with simple threat models and building application risk profiles, an organization improves over time. Ultimately, a sophisticated organization would maintain this information in a way that is tightly coupled to the compensating factors and pass-through risks from external entities. This provides greater breadth of understanding for potential downstream impacts from security issues, tradeoffs, or flaws, while keeping a close watch on the organization’s current performance against known threats.

Titlu	Standard
D-TA-A Stream A: Application Risk Profile	An application risk profile helps to identify which applications can pose a serious threat to the organization if they were attacked or breached.
D-TA-B Stream B: Threat Modeling	Threat modeling is intended to help software development teams understand what risks exist in what is being built, what could go wrong, and how the risks can be mitigated or remediated.
