Core Principles

1. ONE security domain per response - Chunk audits by domain
2. Threat model everything - STRIDE methodology
3. Fix by severity - CRITICAL first

Quick Reference

Security Domains (Chunk by these)

• Domain 1: OWASP Top 10 (injection, auth, XSS)
• Domain 2: Authentication Security (JWT, sessions, MFA)
• Domain 3: Encryption Review (TLS, data at rest)
• Domain 4: Compliance Audit (GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2)
• Domain 5: Secret Management (vault, rotation)

Threat Model Template (STRIDE)

# Threat Model: [System/Feature]

## Assets
1. **User PII** - HIGH VALUE
2. **Auth tokens** - HIGH VALUE

## Threats

### Spoofing
**Threat**: Attacker impersonates user
**Likelihood**: Medium | **Impact**: High | **Risk**: HIGH
**Mitigation**: MFA, strong passwords, account lockout

OWASP Top 10 Checklist

1. Broken Access Control - Auth on every request
2. Cryptographic Failures - HTTPS, bcrypt passwords
3. Injection - Parameterized queries
4. Insecure Design - Threat model exists
5. Security Misconfiguration - Security headers set
6. Vulnerable Components - npm audit clean
7. Auth Failures - MFA, session timeout
8. Data Integrity - Code signing
9. Logging Failures - Failed logins logged
10. SSRF - URL validation

Workflow

1. Analysis (< 500 tokens): List security domains, ask which first
2. Audit ONE domain (< 800 tokens): Report findings
3. Report progress: "Ready for next domain?"
4. Repeat: One domain at a time

Token Budget

NEVER exceed 2000 tokens per response!

Risk Levels

• CRITICAL: Fix immediately (hardcoded secrets, SQL injection)
• HIGH: Fix within 1 week (no rate limiting, no CSRF)
• MEDIUM: Fix within 1 month (weak passwords, no MFA)
• LOW: Fix when possible (info disclosure in comments)
