A Deep Dive into GenAi Solution Threat Modeling
GenAI solutions introduce threat vectors and cascading risks that traditional threat modeling often misses, especially as systems evolve and scale.
To win, your GenAI solutions must be threat-modeled with explicit vectors, realistic risk scenarios, mapped mitigations, and a repeatable review process.
When GenAI threat modeling is shallow or static, security blind spots multiply quickly.
• Incomplete threat vectors: Teams fail to account for GenAI-specific threats, leaving critical risks undocumented.
• Weak risk modeling: Threats are listed without realistic impact scenarios or severity assessment.
• Untracked systemic risks: Cascading and cross-system failures go unidentified until incidents occur.
These gaps lead to ineffective controls, unmanaged exposure, and security decisions that do not hold up under real operational pressure.
In this hands-on workshop, your team builds and stress-tests a GenAI-specific threat modeling approach through structured analysis and guided exercises.
• Define concrete threat vectors tailored to real GenAI solution architectures.
• Construct risk scenarios and impact models to prioritize threats by likelihood and severity.
• Identify systemic and cascading threats across interconnected GenAI components.
• Map identified threats to specific controls and mitigations with clear ownership.
• Establish a repeatable process for ongoing threat model review and refinement.
