Threat Modeling is an advanced-level cybersecurity function requiring cross-functional collaboration to develop various models for analyzing potential threats against business assets and developing mitigation and remediation measures. CBML or Competency-Based Mastery Learning is the application of teaching and learning principles that focus on having learners achieve a high level of competency (95% or more) in whatever subject or topic is being taught, and this leads to a more job-ready workforce.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹:
🟡 Provide a basic overview of CBML principles and the full threat modeling process;
🟡 Review the higher-level concepts of threat modeling;
🟡 Discuss methods for reverse mapping the higher-level threat modeling concepts back to foundational IT/cybersecurity concepts;
🟡 Be introduced to how this exercise for threat modeling relates to upcoming 3CS-V sessions on quantum cryptography, the human interface, and securing Operational Technologies (OT).
