Listen Later

With the enhancement of technology, cyber attackers use the latest tricks and techniques to access unauthorized data and perform malicious activities in the organization’s system or network. Unfortunately, this is due to many security vulnerabilities that go undetected, forming the attack surface.

For such instances, threat modeling emerged to identify the vulnerabilities left undetected even after performing traditional security testing methods.
