Understand
Start with your business, environment, and the decisions you need to make.
28 / Security architecture & threat modelling
Make security decisions before they become constraints.
Review the trust boundaries, data paths, and control choices behind a new system or major technology change.
Discuss your requirementsSpecialist delivery and availability are confirmed during scoping.
Secure design
A clear scope.
A useful outcome.
Work through the proposed architecture with the people who will build and operate it. Identify plausible threats and the design decisions that reduce their impact. Record trade-offs and ownership so delivery teams can implement the controls without losing the reason behind them.
What we cover
- System context, data flows, and trust boundaries
- Identity, isolation, and privileged access patterns
- Resilience, logging, and secure integration design
- Control trade-offs and implementation priorities
What you take away
- Architecture review and threat model
- Security requirements and design decisions
- Prioritized implementation backlog
- Design validation and review triggers
How to engage
Design workshop and review, with follow-up checkpoints during delivery.
What progress looks like
Material threats assigned controls, design decisions documented, and agreed requirements verified.
The final scope, deliverables, and timing are agreed for your engagement.
Assess
Agree the scope and examine the controls, configurations, and exposures that matter.
Prioritize
Translate findings into clear actions, accountable owners, and realistic next steps.
Improve
Support remediation, review the evidence, and keep the programme moving forward.
