Analyze events through the disciplinary lens of cybersecurity, applying rigorous security frameworks (CIA triad, defense-in-depth, zero-trust), threat modeling methodologies (STRIDE, PASTA, VAST), attack surface analysis, and industry standards (NIST, ISO 27001, MITRE ATT&CK) to understand security risks, identify vulnerabilities, assess threat actors and attack vectors, evaluate defensive controls, and recommend...

Defense in Depth: No single security control is perfect. Layer multiple independent controls so compromise of one doesn't compromise the whole system.

Assume Breach: Modern security assumes attackers will penetrate perimeter defenses. Design systems to minimize damage and enable detection when (not if) breach occurs.

Analyzes events through cybersecurity lens using threat modeling, attack surface analysis, defense-in-depth, zero-trust architecture, and risk-based frameworks (CIA triad, STRIDE, MITRE ATT&CK). Provides insights on vulnerabilities, attack vectors, defense strategies, incident response, and security posture. Use when: Security incidents, vulnerability assessments, threat analysis, security architecture, compliance. Evaluates: Confidentiality, integrity, availability, threat actors, attack patterns, controls, residual risk. Source: rysweet/amplihack.
