Key Components
WingMan™ Features
- Build Threat Models and Prioritize Findings WingMan™ allows users to build a threat model based on its guidance and instructions. It can read transcripts of meetings or analyze Word documents describing your application’s architecture to automatically create comprehensive threat models. The AI component intelligently recommends optimal compensating controls and identifies the best locations within your architecture to place them, ensuring maximum protection and efficiency.
- Wizard-based Threat Model Creation One of the standout features of Version 7.2 is the wizard-based approach for creating threat models. This intuitive system guides users through a series of questions, simplifying the process of building a threat model. Users can easily add components, threats, update threat statuses, risk levels, and security requirement statuses.
- Prediction Based on Template Data Harnessing the power of template predictive analytics, WingMan™ offers suggestions for enhancing the security of the model based on previous templates or threat models. This feature significantly streamlines the threat modeling process, making it more efficient and effective.
