Model threats for a sensitive web application, then handle a live cloud credential-abuse alert end to end.
1. Threat-model a customer-facing web application that stores identity documents. Where do you start and what do you prioritise?
~3 minChecks structured threat modelling over checklist recitation.
2. An alert fires: a service account authenticated from an unusual location and enumerated storage buckets. Walk me through your response.
~3 minDetection and response instinct with evidence preservation.
3. How do you make secure defaults easy for engineering teams rather than a review gate they route around?
~3 minTests the paved-road mindset security seniors need.
4. Explain the practical difference between a detection you can trust at 3am and one you cannot.
~3 minAssesses detection engineering maturity and alert fatigue awareness.
