Security Engineering FAQs

Question 1

Can this skill help with OWASP compliance?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. It specifically checks for all OWASP Top 10 categories, including Broken Access Control, Injection, and Insecure Design, providing CWE-mapped findings.

Question 2

Does it provide severity levels for identified issues?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all findings are ranked using a CVSS-aligned system ranging from Low to Critical (9.0-10.0), allowing developers to prioritize remediation efforts.

Question 3

Does it support cryptographic reviews?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it evaluates cryptographic usage to ensure modern standards like AES-256-GCM are used while flagging deprecated algorithms like MD5 or SHA1.

Question 4

How does this skill handle threat modeling?

Accepted Answer

It uses the STRIDE framework to systematically identify threats across six categories: Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information Disclosure, Denial of Service, and Elevation of Privilege.

Question 5

What is the recommended workflow for a security review?

Accepted Answer

The skill follows a five-stage loop: Build Threat Model, Map Attack Surface, Scan for Vulnerabilities, Assess Risk Levels, and finally Plan Remediation.
