As a result, it fails toaccount for threats that may materialize when components of a system are connected with eachother [21]. Furthermore, prior research in systems engineering shows that decomposing a systeminto components and analyzing each component separately (as done in STRIDE and other threatmodeling frameworks) limits the solution designers’ ability to understand how the overall systembehaves [31], [32]. Hence, along with component-level analysis, threat modeling frameworksneed to incorporate system-level threat analysis as well. Currently, to the best of our knowledge,none of the approaches
