Can I export these trees for my reports?

Yes, the skill includes templates for exporting attack trees to JSON format, making it easy to integrate with other security tools, dashboards, or compliance documentation.

What is an attack tree?

An attack tree is a visual representation of how an adversary might compromise a system, starting from a high-level goal and breaking it down into sub-goals and specific attack steps.

How does the AND/OR logic work in these trees?

OR nodes represent alternative methods to achieve a goal (only one child must succeed), while AND nodes represent steps that must all be completed successfully for the goal to be reached.

Does this skill help with mitigation planning?

Absolutely. It allows you to map specific mitigations to individual attack nodes and identifies 'unmitigated nodes' to show exactly where your security controls are missing.

Security & Testing

Builds comprehensive, structured attack trees to visualize threat paths and identify systemic security vulnerabilities.

About

Attack Tree Construction provides a systematic framework for modeling security threats and visualizing the various paths an adversary might take to compromise a system. By utilizing formal AND/OR logic gates and attributing nodes with metrics like cost, difficulty, and detection risk, this skill enables security professionals to perform rigorous risk analysis. It includes Python-based data models and a fluent builder pattern, allowing Claude to help you identify defense gaps, prioritize security investments, and communicate complex architectural risks to stakeholders through structured, exportable data.

Key Features

Systematic visualization of multi-step attack paths
Support for AND/OR logic gates in threat modeling
Quantifiable metrics for attack difficulty, cost, and detection risk
Standardized JSON export for security reporting and documentation
Automated path analysis to identify the path of least resistance
0 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Prioritizing security budget based on calculated risk paths
Planning and scoping penetration testing engagements
Identifying critical defense gaps during security architecture reviews
