Threat Mitigation Mapping

Connect threats to controls for effective security planning.

When to Use This Skill

  • Prioritizing security investments
  • Creating remediation roadmaps
  • Validating control coverage
  • Designing defense-in-depth
  • Security architecture review
  • Risk treatment planning

Core Concepts

1. Control Categories

Preventive ────► Stop attacks before they occur
   │              (Firewall, Input validation)
   │
Detective ─────► Identify attacks in progress
   │              (IDS, Log monitoring)
   │
Corrective ────► Respond and recover from attacks
                  (Incident response, Backup restore)

2. Control Layers

LayerExamples
NetworkFirewall, WAF, DDoS protection
ApplicationInput validation, authentication
DataEncryption, access controls
EndpointEDR, patch management
ProcessSecurity training, incident response

3. Defense in Depth

Best Practices

Do's

  • Map all threats - No threat should be unmapped
  • Layer controls - Defense in depth is essential
  • Mix control types - Preventive, detective, corrective
  • Track effectiveness - Measure and improve
  • Review regularly - Controls degrade over time

Don'ts

  • Don't rely on single controls - Single points of failure
  • Don't ignore cost - ROI matters
  • Don't skip testing - Untested controls may fail
  • Don't set and forget - Continuous improvement
  • Don't ignore people/process - Technology alone isn't enough
