Description

@planetlevel

Would love to see support for:

  • Appl/API routes (a list of entry points that describes the attack surface)

    • This could be "front door" like HTTP endpoints or "back door" mq endpoints, databases, APIs, etc...
  • Each route has...

    • Security controls like secure comms, authentication, access control, encryption, input validation, escaping, logging, etc...
    • Important operations. - what happens during this route
    • Dangerous operations - using powerful capabilities
    • Accesses to backend systems
  • Each security control has some general details like....
    * Authentication
    * SSO
    * MFA
    * Password details
    * etc...
    * Authorization
    * Set of roles available
    * Object reference approach
    * Cross-Site Request appraoch
    * Encryption
    * What algorithms are used, how initialized, where are keys stored

  • But each route has some specifics about how security controls are actually used.
    * Is this route authenticated?
    * Which access control checks (for which roles) are enforced (access control matrix)
    * Does this route encrypt data - with which algorithm?
    * etc...
