Cooking with PASTA: The Secret Ingredient Behind Our Services

PASTA Threat Modeling:
7 Stages for Simulating Cyber Attacks

Our risk-based threat modeling methodology consists of 7 stages for simulating cyber attacks and analyzing threats to the organization and application. This allows our pentesters, redteamers, and cybersecurity analysts to help your organization identify critical vulnerabilities and minimize real-world risks associated business impact.

  1. Define Business Context of Application

    This considers the inherent application risk profile and address other business impact considerations early in the SDLC or for given Sprint under Scrum activities.

  2. Technology Enumeration

    You can’t protect what you don’t know is the philosophy behind this stage. It’s intended to decompose the technology stack that supports the application components that realize the business objectives identified from Stage 1.

  3. Application Decomposition

    Focuses on understanding the data flows amongst application components and services in the application threat model.

  4. Threat Analysis

    Reviews threat assertions from data within the environment as well as industry threat intelligence that is relevant to service, data, and deployment model.

  5. Weakness / Vulnerability Identification

    Identifies the vulnerabilities and weaknesses within the application design and code and correlates to see if it supports the threat assertions from the prior stage.

  6. Attack Simulation

    This stage focuses on emulating attacks that could exploit identified weaknesses/vulnerabilities from the prior stage. It helps to also determine the threat viability via attack patterns.

  7. Residual Risk Analysis

    This stage centers around remediating vulnerabilities or weaknesses in code or design that can facilitate threats and underlying attack patterns. It may warrant some risk acceptance by broader application owners or development managers.
