Has your organization developed and implemented threat modeling processes to identify risks to data and determine appropriate risk responses?

Threat modeling is a structured approach to identifying potential threats, vulnerabilities, and attack vectors that could compromise your data assets. By systematically analyzing how an attacker might target your systems, you can better understand your risk exposure and prioritize security controls.

Effective threat modeling helps organizations make informed decisions about risk mitigation strategies, whether through accepting, avoiding, transferring, or reducing identified risks.

Evidence of fulfillment could include documented threat models (such as STRIDE, DREAD, or attack trees), risk assessment reports that incorporate threat modeling outputs, or meeting minutes from threat modeling sessions that show the process of identifying threats and determining risk responses.
