Abstract—The threat modeling process starts with the phases of identifying critical assets, creating an architecture overview, and decomposing to identify possible points of attack. Data flow diagrams and sequence diagrams are used in this process. This paper proposes an alternative flow-based methodology for building an architectural map for the system. It provides a high-level methodology for...

This article examines the role of espionage in defending against cyber-attacks on infrastructural firms. We analyze the problem using a game between a government, an infrastructural firm and an attacker. If the attacker successfully breaches the IT security defenses of the infrastructural firm, primary losses accrue to that firm while widespread collateral losses accrue to the rest of the econo...

In order to perform a useful threat analysis of a web application platform, some architectural assumptions about such applications must be made. This document describes a generic architecture for typical 3-tier web applications. It serves as the basis for analyzing the threats in the most important infrastructural components in that architecture, presented in the following

Recent studies on collaborative practices in large infrastructural projects address the importance of discursive strategies and power relations in dynamic project arenas [1]-[3]. This paper focuses on the coping narratives developed by contract team members during the building phase of a large-scale infrastructural project. Coping narratives relate to the management based grand narrative of the...
