Selected Answer: A
Threat modeling is a proactive approach to identify and assess potential threats and vulnerabilities in a system or application during the design phase. It involves systematically analyzing the system architecture, identifying potential threats and attack vectors, and evaluating their potential impact. By understanding the potential threats and their likelihood, system designers can make informed decisions about implementing appropriate security controls and mitigations.
