Security Compass published the results of a report designed to provide a better understanding of the current state of threat modeling in mid-sized, $100M to $999M and large sized, $1B + enterprises, with a specific focus on the challenges organizations face in scaling threat modeling for the applications they build and deploy.

Current performance on threat modeling approaches Only 25% of survey participants indicate their organizations conduct threat modeling during the early phases of software development requirements gathering and design, before proceeding with application development.

Less than 10% report their organizations perform threat modeling on 90% or more of the applications they develop.

Lack of automation Over 60% of organizations believe that all aspects of their organization's threat modeling could be fully automated, yet only 28% have reached that threshold.

More than half of organizations face challenges in automating and integrating their threat modeling activities with other technologies, with 41% of respondents expressing that it takes too long.

"Software is being used in almost every aspect of everyday life, making it essential for organizations to be equipped with the necessary resources to perform timely threat modeling on the applications that they develop and deploy," said Rohit Sethi, CEO, Security Compass.
