Advanced Security Design: Threat Modeling Masterclass

So, you’ve decided your products need better security? Now, you need to improve your development workflow. But your team is focused on quick delivery, often without time to discuss quality or security!

    Threat Modeling, a structured methodology for security analysis of complex systems, can help you effectively identify and prioritize potential threats and attack vectors, and understand the appropriate mitigations. Still, comprehensive methodologies are often difficult to integrate into your workflow, so we also introduce a more lightweight "value driven" approach for security-minded developers.

    As a professional developer, you want to contribute to your product's security, be responsible for security features. You want to build on a secure architecture, but likely don’t have unlimited time. With training and tangible experience, you could independently threat model your applications, easing the load off your security team, and creating deeper integration and a higher level of security than enforcing it externally.

    My Threat Modeling Masterclass will kickstart your security design efforts, teaching you the skills required to build your own threat models for your products, and train with hands-on experience so that you are confident to continue designing secure products using threat modeling. Experienced security professionals will get more insight into developer workflows, gain skills to provide your teams with the artifacts they need to implement a secure design, and even empower developers to design a more secure architecture themselves, easing the load off you.
