STRIDE Model As A Potentially Strong Security Analysis And Threat Modeling Tool For E2EE Messaging Applications And Social Media Networks
STRIDE Model, E2EE Messaging Applications, Social Media Networks
Due to the increased reliance on social media networks brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, individuals are now more vulnerable to threats like hackers and scammers. Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information Disclosure, Denial of Service, and Elevation of Privilege (STRIDE) is a safe software development model that Microsoft's Security Development Lifecycle (SDL) has adopted to handle and mitigate these security vulnerabilities. Eavesdroppers on communication channels threaten E2EE (end-to-end encrypted) applications like messaging apps and social media networks. To counter this, the STRIDE model analyses the network's security properties, such as authentication, non-repudiation, confidentiality, integrity, availability, and authorisation, identifying potential threats and vulnerabilities. Additionally, the widespread adoption of social media platforms in the economy has prompted organisations and companies to prioritise information security and privacy, an emphasis reflected in the Agile, OWASP, and DevOps processes. This paper also emphasises the requirement for security-improving countermeasures. Implementing fail-safe defaults and balancing security requirements with shared state are suggested for E2EE applications. Two-Factor Authentication (TFA) through SMS and user awareness and education on online etiquette are suggested as ways to prevent dangers for social media networks. The efficacy of the STRIDE model for threat management in E2EE messaging apps and social media networks is examined in this study. This discussion summarises ideas from the arguments made by Sharma, et al. (2023) and Chowdhury, et al. (2023). The STRIDE model is helpful, but this research also recognises that technology continually evolves and that changes are needed to ensure the model can minimise threats in the future.
