Question 1 of 11
Threat modeling is most valuable early enough to influence architecture by identifying threats, trust boundaries, attack paths, and required mitigations before defects are embedded in implementation. This is critical for proactive security design, reducing the likelihood of costly rework and vulnerabilities later in the development lifecycle.
