Does it support dependency scanning?

Yes, it includes checks for dependency and supply chain security, often recommending tools like npm audit or cargo audit as part of the scan phase.

Can I use this for general feature implementation?

No, this skill is specialized for security audits. For general feature development or performance optimization, general-purpose Claude Code capabilities are more suitable.

When should I use the Security Engineering skill?

Use this skill during security audits, code reviews for sensitive features, or when implementing authentication, authorization, and cryptographic logic.

Does this skill help with remediation?

Yes, it provides a structured remediation plan that includes risk rankings and specific code examples to fix identified vulnerabilities.

What frameworks does the Security Engineering skill support?

The skill utilizes the OWASP Top 10 for vulnerability patterns, the STRIDE framework for threat modeling, and CVSS for severity scoring.

Security & Testing

Performs threat-aware code audits and vulnerability assessments using industry-standard frameworks like OWASP and STRIDE.

About

The Security Engineering skill empowers Claude to act as a specialized security auditor, providing systematic analysis of your codebase's security posture. It guides the agent through a rigorous multi-phase workflow—from threat modeling and attack surface mapping to vulnerability scanning and risk-ranked remediation planning. By integrating frameworks such as STRIDE for threat identification and the OWASP Top 10 for pattern matching, this skill helps developers identify critical flaws in authentication, authorization, input validation, and cryptographic implementations before they reach production.

Key Features

Comprehensive vulnerability scanning aligned with OWASP Top 10 and CWE standards.
CVSS-aligned risk assessment to prioritize remediations based on severity and impact.
Deep-dive reviews of authentication, authorization, and cryptographic patterns.
Automated attack surface mapping across external endpoints, data inputs, and trust boundaries.
Systematic threat modeling using the STRIDE framework to identify spoofing, tampering, and elevation risks.
16 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Reviewing complex authentication and authorization logic for potential bypasses or IDOR flaws.
Conducting pre-release security audits to identify and fix high-severity vulnerabilities.
Threat modeling new features during the design phase to identify potential attack vectors early.
