How does this skill help with defense-in-depth?

It organizes controls into distinct layers (Network, Application, Data, etc.) and types (Preventive, Detective, Corrective) to ensure that if one control fails, others are in place to mitigate the threat effectively.

What is a 'coverage score' in this context?

It is a calculated metric based on the implementation status and effectiveness of your security controls, helping you quantify how well a specific threat is mitigated across your environment.

Can I use this for compliance audits?

Yes, the skill includes templates with compliance references for frameworks like PCI-DSS, NIST 800-63B, and GDPR to help align your technical mitigations with regulatory requirements.

Does it support identifying security gaps?

Absolutely. The skill features automated gap analysis that flags threats without mitigations, insufficient control diversity, or lack of defense-in-depth, providing clear recommendations for improvement.

Seguridad y Pruebas

Maps identified security threats to specific controls and mitigations to strengthen system defenses and prioritize remediation efforts.

Acerca de

The Threat Mitigation Mapping skill empowers developers and security architects to bridge the gap between risk identification and remediation. By utilizing structured models and templates, it helps categorize controls into preventive, detective, and corrective layers while ensuring defense-in-depth across network, application, and data tiers. Whether you are designing a new security architecture or conducting a risk treatment plan, this skill provides the framework to validate control effectiveness, calculate coverage scores, and identify critical security gaps within your codebase or infrastructure.
