Benson K

I am a Threat Modeling Expert specializing in identifying, analyzing, and mitigating potential security threats across modern web and cloud-based systems. My work focuses on helping organizations build secure-by-design applications through a structured and methodical approach to threat modeling and risk analysis.

I have extensive hands-on experience using the Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool (MTMT) and OWASP Threat Dragon to develop precise Data Flow Diagrams (DFDs) and identify system threats using industry-recognized methodologies such as STRIDE, DREAD, and Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). My goal is not just to list threats but to provide actionable mitigation strategies that align with real-world architectures and business priorities.

My process begins with understanding your system’s architecture, assets, and data flows. From there, I apply structured analysis to uncover potential attack vectors, misconfigurations, and design weaknesses. I then deliver a comprehensive threat model that prioritizes risks by impact and likelihood allowing developers, architects, and stakeholders to make informed security decisions early in the development lifecycle.

I have worked on Azure-based architectures, API-driven web applications, and secure CI/CD pipelines, ensuring compliance with modern security standards and best practices. My approach ensures that threat modeling becomes a living part of your security process, not just a one-time document.

Beyond modeling, I also provide threat mitigation recommendations, risk scoring using CVSS, and guidance on secure design reviews, empowering teams to maintain security awareness throughout the development process.

What sets me apart is my ability to translate complex security findings into clear, developer-friendly language, making it easy for teams to act on the results. I believe that every strong application begins with a solid understanding of its threat landscape and I’m passionate about helping businesses achieve that clarity.

If you’re looking for a reliable professional to perform end-to-end threat modeling, reduce vulnerabilities, and enhance your system’s resilience, I’m here to help. Let’s work together to make your applications secure from the ground up.
