Threat Modeling in Web Application Security: A Forward-thinking to Secure Software Development

<p>Application security continues to be of paramount importance, particularly in view of the rapidly increasing reliance on software applications in many sectors, from finance and healthcare to government. The present paper highlights the importance of threat modeling, A proactive measure in the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) aimed at successfully identifying, evaluating and mitigating possible security threats. The systematic threat modeling analyzes the architecture of the application, data flows and attack vectors to identify the vulnerabilities before those vulnerabilities are exploited.</p>
