Architecture Decomposition
Break down the network into zones, segments, trust boundaries, and critical asset groupings to understand the security topology.
Trust Boundary Review
Evaluate where security boundaries exist — or should exist — between internal zones, DMZ, cloud, third-party networks, and remote access.
Attack Path Mapping
Map realistic attacker progression from external entry points through lateral movement to critical assets, identifying chokepoints and bypass opportunities.
Control Analysis
Assess whether existing firewalls, segmentation, access controls, and monitoring actually block or detect the mapped attack paths.
Threat Scenario Development
Build decision-tree style attack scenarios based on real-world TTPs relevant to your industry and threat intelligence.
Deliverables
Threat model diagrams, attack path maps, security control gap analysis by zone, prioritized mitigation recommendations, and executive/technical walkthrough.
