Threat model lab – personal computer security
The objective of this lab is to enable students to develop a threat model for their personal computers. By identifying potential security risks, vulnerabilities, and attack vectors, students will gain a practical understanding of threat modeling principles and learn how to enhance the security of their own systems.
To achieve this objective, follow these steps:
- Introduction: In this lab, you will create your own threat report. Begin by introducing the concept of threat modeling and its importance in computer security. Explain how threat modeling involves identifying potential threats, vulnerabilities, and possible mitigation strategies.
- Identify assets: List valuable assets stored on your personal computer, such as personal documents, photos, passwords, financial information, and so on. Emphasize the importance of these assets and their potential attractiveness to attackers.
