FAQ
What is the STRIDE method?
STRIDE is an acronym representing six threat categories: Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information Disclosure, Denial of Service, and Elevation of Privilege.
Do I need to know programming to use this?
No, you don't need to know how to program. The tool is designed to help think about security, even without deep technical knowledge.
What should I do if the AI finds many threats?
The AI will list the threats. The next step is to use this information to fix the issues and make your system more secure. Refer to 'implementation-playbook.md' for more details.
