Abstract

A method and system for automating threat model generation for an application includes identifying components of an application, receiving security information that identifies whether security measures were implemented within the application to secure the application against security threats, determining whether the security measures sufficiently address security risks associated with the security threats, and providing a threat model that includes a report that identifies components of the application that have been sufficiently (or insufficiently) secured from the security threats, according to one embodiment. In one embodiment, determining whether the security measures sufficiently address the security risks can include transmitting first queries, receiving responses to the first queries, and transmitting subsequent queries based at least in part on the responses to the first queries.
