We published the Threat Modeling Playbook in markdown in an OWASP GitHub repository.

Intro

We aim to improve product and software security with our new OWASP threat modeling playbook. We consider threat modeling as a foundational activity to improve your software assurance. We are convinced that a good threat modeling practice will measurably decrease security issues of delivered products.

We hope you will use this playbook to improve your threat modeling practice. We also encourage you to provide feedback to our OWASP threat modeling community in order to make this playbook even better in our next release.

I thank our collaborators (in alphabetic order): Jonas Muylaert, Joris Van den Broeck, Sebastien Deleersnyder, Steven Wierckx and Thomas Heyman to help us create this first release. I also thank Toreon for its decision to donate this work to the threat modeling community.

We are currently gathering feedback and input from the community for our next 1.1 release.
Feel free to suggest fixes, feedback or input through our GitHub issues tracker.

Project roadmap

We plan the following updates to our playbook (version 1.1) by end of 2023:

• include a list of threat modeling methodologies
