Working Group: Top Threats

This case study attempts to connect all the dots when it comes to security analysis by using nine anecdotes cited in the Top Threats for its foundation. Each of the nine examples are presented in the form of (1) a reference chart and (2) a detailed narrative. The reference chart’s format provides an attack-style synopsis of the actor, spanning from threats and vulnerabilities to end controls and mitigations. We encourage architects and engineers to use this information as a starting point for their own analysis and comparisons.
