Systematic identification and assessment of potential threats to prioritize security efforts.
CypSec's threat modeling methodology combines technical telemetry with intelligence collection, including data from deception environments and live incident handling. This produces adaptive threat maps that evolve as adversaries refine their tactics, techniques, and procedures. The result is a navigational tool that guides both strategic planning and daily security engineering.
CypSec's approach evolves in parallel with adversaries. The engineering process takes into account the geopolitical context and analyzes attacker intent, system exposure, and cascading risk pathways to move threat models from static diagrams to operationally relevant decision maps.
Partners benefit from threat models that inform business stakeholders and system architects alike. Instead of relying on generic best practices, they receive adversary-specific insights tailored to sovereign environments. This ensures security investments are not only effective but aligned with organizational autonomy. In volatile threat landscapes, such alignment is the difference between resilience and dependency.
Identify critical systems, dependencies, and data flows essential for business continuity.
Anticipate attack vectors by modeling adversary tradecraft, capabilities, and objectives.
Evaluate exposure and impact to guide security investments and defensive measures.
Update models with new intelligence and incidents to remain operationally relevant.
CypSec's threat modeling research provides a structured representations of assets, attack surfaces, and potential adversary tactics. The work emphasizes dynamic updates as environments evolve, producing actionable tools and documentation that guide both system design and defense. Deliverables ensure security is embedded early in the lifecycle, highlight systemic risks, and define priorities that align protection with mission-critical requirements.

Business-critical asset mapping
CypSec investigates structured threat models that represent assets, interdependencies, and adversary tactics in operational contexts. We emphasize predictive frameworks that incorporate telemetry, intelligence feeds, and evolving vulnerability landscapes to anticipate exploitation pathways. Simulation techniques test model robustness under complex attack scenarios.
A parallel focus examines risk prioritization linked to business impact through the integration of severity metrics with likelihood assessments to guide resource allocation and defensive measures. Our work outputs support adaptive security architectures that evolve in response to new adversary tactics and environmental changes, reducing exposure across critical infrastructures.
CypSec treats threat modeling as a dynamic engineering process that evolves with adversaries. It combines technical telemetry, intelligence data, and operational dependencies to create adaptive, actionable threat maps. These models inform architecture decisions, governance planning, and counterintelligence strategy, ensuring defenses are aligned with both mission-critical objectives and sovereign control. Partners gain insights tailored to their operational environment, enabling proactive risk mitigation rather than reactive patching.
CypSec continuously updates threat models using real-time intelligence, incident telemetry, and active deception data. Models adapt to changing attacker methods, system modifications, and geopolitical shifts, maintaining operational relevance. Partners can rely on these dynamic maps to anticipate attacks, allocate defensive resources efficiently, and align their systems with strategic security priorities.
Threat models inform both architecture and operational workflows, guiding security controls, system segmentation, and countermeasure prioritization. CypSec links model outputs directly to engineering, governance, and risk management decisions for partners to gain proactive defenses that anticipate adversary behavior rather than reacting post-compromise.
Threat models are annotated with asset criticality, adversary capability, and potential impact, producing a risk-prioritization matrix. Partners use this to focus resources on high-impact vulnerabilities, align security investments with operational priorities, and implement proactive mitigation strategies that reinforce both immediate resilience and long-term autonomy.
