ThreatModeler Nexus is an agentic threat modeling platform that helps security architects, AppSec teams, and developers scale security coverage as software development accelerates.
It automates the groundwork of creating and analyzing threat models, identifies architectural changes, and proposes updates for review. By building on your organization’s connected security knowledge, ThreatModeler Nexus helps teams cover more applications with less manual effort, while keeping experts in control of security decisions.
Powered by the Secure Design Graph and NexusAI, the platform turns individual threat models into a living source of organizational security intelligence. The Secure Design Graph connects architecture, threats, security requirements, and security decisions so teams can build on established knowledge across applications. NexusAI puts that knowledge to work, automating modeling groundwork and proposing updates while keeping experts in control of security decisions.
ThreatModeler Nexus holds FedRAMP Moderate authorization and maps to frameworks including NIST, CIS, PCI, ISO 27001, IEC 62443, and the EU Cyber Resilience Act. It is used by enterprise security teams in financial services, healthcare, energy, and technology, including Charles Schwab and SLB, and is backed by 14 patents.
Key features
-
Agentic threat modeling: NexusAI creates and analyzes models from existing context, including diagrams, documents, infrastructure as code, and repositories. Teams can delegate work conversationally, review recommendations, and approve proposed changes.
-
Reusable security knowledge: The Secure Design Graph connects security context across models, helping teams reuse established threats, requirements, and decisions instead of starting from scratch for each application.
-
Ongoing model maintenance: NexusAI can run scheduled checks against connected sources, identify architectural changes, and propose model updates for review, reducing the work needed to keep models aligned with software.
-
Connected development workflows: Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations draw on development sources and make ThreatModeler capabilities available within compatible AI assistants and developer tools.
-
Collaborative security design: Visual models, shared security requirements, compliance mappings, and reporting give security and development teams a common foundation for reviewing risks and planning mitigations.
Benefits
-
Broader security coverage: Reduce repetitive modeling and maintenance work so security experts can support more applications and focus on decisions that need their judgment.
-
Earlier identification of design risks: Understand architectural weaknesses and missing controls while teams can still address them through design.
-
More consistent security decisions: Apply established organizational knowledge across projects, reducing isolated analysis and duplicated effort.
-
Less disruption to development: Bring threat modeling into familiar development tools and workflows, reducing context switching and manual handoffs.
-
Stronger governance: Keep security requirements, supporting evidence, and decisions connected to the architecture they concern, supporting reviews and compliance work.
