Threat modeling for every story, not once a year

Secure before it's built.

Every Jira story is threat-modeled before a line of code exists. AI does the exhaustive analysis, your security leads make every call, and every finding cites a published standard. Approved threats ship to your teams as security tests, and CI proves each fix. Sprint after sprint, across every project.

The search space

We explore13.6 trillionways to discover security threats.

Only possible with AI. That's how you SecureSprints.

A workshop covers the threats people remember. SecureSprints covers the threats the method demands, for every story, in every project, every sprint.

  • Every storytakes the path its change needs: full, delta or checklist
  • Every elementof the design is checked against each framework that applies
  • Every checkends in a finding or a recorded reason, never a silent skip
How we count
  1. Entry

    How a story enters

    The kinds of change it combines, such as API, mobile, AI, cloud and CI/CD, the lens packs that apply to them, and how deep to go: full, delta or checklist.

  2. Design

    What each part of the design is checked against

    Every actor, data flow, data store, process and AI component is checked against the framework categories for its kind. AI and autonomous AI components get the most. A typical story runs 60 to 160 checks.

  3. Gates

    How the work moves through the gates

    Autopilot settings, independent review rounds on the reviewed stages, and the final decision: approve, or send back to a stage.

With required packs only, it is about 294 billion paths. This counts method routes only. Each story's own components, flows and data multiply it again.

One path of 13.6 trillion · move over the lines, tap, or use the arrow keysAI agent → Full model → Clean review, approvedIllustrative. 60 of the possible routes are drawn.

Evidence that stands up to audit. Every threat, decision and fix traces to a person, a standard and a CI run.

Inside a SecureSprinted story

What one story carries into the build

This story gives an AI support assistant the power to issue refunds. Before anyone writes code, SecureSprints has mapped it, found the threats a design review would likely miss, and turned each one into a test. Jira is read, never written.

  1. 1

    Triage reads the story, not a form

    AI proposes the depth and every kind of change involved: here, an autonomous AI agent calling a payments API. A triage that misses something the story says is challenged before anyone confirms it.

  2. 2

    The design, mapped

    Stage three maps every actor, flow, store and AI component, and where trust changes. Each element is checked against the frameworks for its kind. AI and autonomous components get the deepest checks.

  3. 3

    Threats with evidence and a standard

    Each finding quotes the story or is marked as an inference, and cites OWASP or MITRE from a version-pinned library. Threats proposed by built-in rules must each be answered.

  4. 4

    Coverage you can show an auditor

    Every check ends in a finding or a recorded reason. Nothing is skipped silently, so "we looked at it" is provable.

  5. 5

    Tests, a challenge, a named sign-off

    Stage seven writes each threat as a Given / When / Then test with a severity. A separate AI reviewer challenges the model, and your approver signs off the exact version your team builds.

The Closure Loop · once SecureSprinted, always checked

Every fix comes back to be checked.

Approved threats land in the threat inventory as tasks: open, planned, in progress, implemented, then verified. Verification comes from CI test results, or from a lead who isn't the implementer. Nobody verifies their own work.

The loop keeps watching. A verified control whose code is removed is reopened, and a story whose threats a later change touches is suggested for a delta re-model.

Grounded AI

Eight controls on every finding

No finding reaches your inventory until it has passed all eight. Each control leaves a record your auditors can read.

  1. 1

    Redaction first

    Personal and secret data is removed before any AI sees the story.

  2. 2

    Pinned standards library

    References come only from a version-pinned library. Recalled ones are refused.

  3. 3

    Evidence on every finding

    Each finding quotes the story or profile, or is marked as an inference.

  4. 4

    Full coverage

    Every element is checked against each framework that applies. Skips need a reason.

  5. 5

    Independent AI review

    A second AI challenges the first. Its findings block until fixed or overridden in writing.

  6. 6

    Named human decision

    A person confirms every stage, approval and accepted risk.

  7. 7

    Tamper-evident log

    Every action is hash-chained. A later edit is detectable.

  8. 8

    Measured accuracy

    Each release is scored on labelled reference designs. Regressions can't pass unnoticed.

In plain words

What is SecureSprints?

SecureSprints is AI threat modeling for every Jira story: grounded in published standards, decided by people, and verified in CI before a fix counts as done.

It takes each story through triage and the seven stages of PASTA, a published threat modeling method. AI drafts each stage and a separate AI reviewer challenges it. A named person confirms every stage, and an approver signs off the model before anyone writes code. Approved threats become security acceptance tests in a threat inventory. Developers, their coding agents and CI work through it until each task is verified, and the PR check keeps watching the code after that. SecureSprints reads Jira and never writes to it.

Questions

Asked before buying

What does SecureSprints do?

It threat-models each Jira story before it is built. AI drafts triage and seven modeling stages, a separate AI reviewer challenges them, and named people confirm each stage and approve the model. Approved threats become security tests in a threat inventory that your team, its coding agents and CI work through until each fix is verified.

What does "13.6 trillion paths" mean?

It is how many distinct routes a story can take through the SecureSprints method, from how it enters, through every design check, to every review and approval gate. Each story takes the one path it needs, and every part of its design is checked against it. How we count

When does the threat model happen?

Before the build, usually at sprint planning. A story is ready for build once its model is approved. The security tests and the developer brief are in your team's hands before anyone writes code. Pentests and scanners still run later.

What does the AI do, and what does it never do?

It drafts the project profile and each stage, reviews the drafts independently, imagines misuse cases, suggests fixes and maps threats to code. It never confirms a stage, approves a model, marks a task verified or writes to Jira. Those are always a person's decisions, or CI's.

How do you stop the AI making things up?

Every reference must come from a built-in, version-pinned library of published standards. References from an AI's memory are refused, even correct ones. Each finding quotes the story or is marked as an inference. A separate reviewer can block confirmation, and every action is recorded in a hash-chained audit log.

Is SecureSprints a threat modeling tool?

Yes. It follows PASTA, a published seven-stage method, and checks designs against STRIDE, LINDDUN, the OWASP Top 10 lists and MITRE CWE, CAPEC, ATT&CK and ATLAS. You don't draw diagrams from scratch or run workshops: you confirm what the AI drafts, one story at a time.

Does SecureSprints write to Jira?

No. It reads Jira and never writes to it. Developers work from the threat inventory, the developer brief or their coding agent. Personal and secret data is redacted before any AI sees a story.

Where is my data stored, and is it used to train models?

Cloud workspaces stay in the region you choose. For on-premises deployments, where data is kept is agreed with you. Our full statement on data use is on the Security page.

Can we run SecureSprints on-premises?

SecureSprints runs as a cloud service. Enterprise customers can have it deployed on-premises by arrangement. Write to hello@securesprints.ai, or read more.

Can we cancel or change plans at any time?

Yes. Change or cancel from billing settings. When you cancel, you keep access until the end of the paid period, and you can export your data for 30 days after.

Sprint 43 planning starts Monday

SecureSprint your next release.

Threat modeling for every story, not once a year

From Jira story to verified fix

Follow one SecureSprinted story from triage to a fix that CI has verified. AI drafts each step, a named person decides at every one, and every finding traces to a published standard. Every story in every team takes the same governed path, so security review keeps pace with your backlog instead of your headcount. Swipe the stage or use the arrows to step through it.

How you SecureSprint · eight steps

Who acts, what the AI does, and what you see

Steps one to six finish before anyone writes code. Steps seven and eight follow the code until every fix is verified, and keep watching after release.

  1. 01Set up the project

    A project profile, confirmed by people

    Upload a short intake document covering business goals, systems, data and users, or build the profile by conversation. A person confirms the draft. Any later change to a confirmed profile needs a second person (four eyes). You can also connect the project's code repository: DevOps or a lead proposes it, and an Approver confirms.

  3. 03Triage

    Stage 0: how deep, and what kind of change

    The AI proposes a depth (full, delta, checklist or not relevant) and the kinds of change involved, such as API, mobile, AI or LLM, cloud and CI/CD. SecureSprints checks that choice against the story itself. If the story mentions an API or an AI feature the triage left out, the choice is challenged and must be fixed or explained.

    Seven stages, one at a time

    The model follows PASTA, a published threat modeling method. SecureSprints drafts one stage, then stops for a person to confirm it, answer an open question, or send it back with a change request. From stage four, an independent reviewer challenges the work before anyone can confirm.

    An Approver reads the assembled model and approves it, bound to the exact content, or sends it back to any stage.

    Every approved threat lands in the project's threat inventory with its tasks: the security acceptance tests. Tasks move from Open to Planned, In progress and Implemented, with evidence, then to Verified, or back to Reopened. Verification comes from CI test results or a lead who is not the implementer. Nobody verifies their own work. An Approver can accept a risk, with a reason, an owner and a review date.

Independent review · stages 4 to 7

A second AI checks the first

From stage four, an independent reviewer works apart from the AI that drafted the stage and challenges it before a person can confirm. It can only report findings. It never edits the model.

A wrong threat category, a wrong standard mapping or a gap in coverage is a blocking finding. Confirmation stays blocked until the work is fixed and reviewed again. A person can override a blocking finding with a written reason, and the override is recorded.

Autopilot · optional

What autopilot may confirm, and where it always stops

That's how you SecureSprints

13.6 trillion ways a threat model can unfold

Each story takes the one path it needs, and every part of its design is checked against it. No workshop, checklist or spreadsheet can hold that many routes, so SecureSprints checks completeness mechanically, on every story, in every team. Only possible with AI.

How we count
  1. Entry

    How a story enters

    The kinds of change it combines (API, mobile, AI, cloud, CI/CD and more), the lens packs that apply, and the depth: full, delta or checklist.

  2. Design

    What each part of the design is checked against

    Every actor, data flow, data store, process and AI component is checked against the framework categories for its kind. AI and autonomous AI components get the most checks. A typical story has 60 to 160 checks, and each is answered by a finding or closed with a specific reason.

  3. Gates

    How the work moves through the gates

    Autopilot settings, independent review rounds on the reviewed stages, and the final approval or send-back to any stage.

With required packs only, about 294 billion paths. This counts routes through the method only. Each story's own components, flows and data multiply it again, which is why completeness is checked mechanically rather than left to memory.

The problem 0:00

Most security problems are found after the code ships. A pentest report arrives six weeks after release and names a flaw in the design: settlement webhooks are accepted without a signature, so a forged one can mark an unpaid invoice as paid. By then, fixing the design means two sprints of rework.

Set up the project 0:15

Upload a short intake document for project PAY: its goals, systems, data and users. SecureSprints drafts the project profile, and A. Rao, the security champion, confirms it. Any later change to the profile needs a second person to confirm it too. Jira is connected read-only. SecureSprints never writes to it.

Triage the sprint 0:30

Pick the Jira stories in Sprint 42. Each one is triaged as full, delta, checklist or not relevant, with the kinds of change it involves. PAY-142, pay an invoice by bank with settlement webhooks, is triaged as full: API, identity, a third-party bank and webhooks. A person confirms every triage.

Seven stages, confirmed 0:50

AI drafts each modeling stage, from business objectives through decomposition to threat analysis. It stops at every stage for a person to confirm, answer an open question or send it back. For PAY-142 the data flow crosses three trust boundaries: customer to bank, bank to payments API, and payments API out to the merchant's webhook. Threat analysis finds a forged settlement webhook that marks an unpaid invoice paid, a replayed webhook that settles twice, a consent redirect that hands the bank's code to an attacker, an invoice ID that can be swapped for another tenant's, bank account numbers in logs, and a consent page that can be framed. Each finding quotes the story or the profile and cites its weakness, such as CWE-345.

Independent review 1:05

From stage four, a separate AI reviewer challenges the work. Here it raises two blocking findings: the invoice-ID threat cites CWE-284, which is too broad, and no threat covers the merchant's webhook URL. A. Rao corrects the mapping to CWE-639 and adds a server-side request forgery threat. The reviewer runs again and comes back clean. Only then can the stage be confirmed.

Approve and export 1:20

Weakness analysis ties each threat to CWE, and attack modeling maps the paths to CAPEC and MITRE ATT&CK. R. Iyer, the security lead, reads the assembled model and approves it: seven threats, six security acceptance tests written as Given, When, Then, and one accepted risk, the framing of the bank's own page, with an owner and a review date. It exports as a threat model report and a developer brief. All of this happens before anyone writes code.

Build from the inventory 1:45

The approved threats land in the threat inventory. M. Okafor and their coding agent claim the tasks and read the brief over a secure connection. When the pull request opens, the PR check compares it with the open threats it touches.

Verified by CI 2:00

CI test results verify each task. In build 1186 four pass, but the replay test fails: the same event ID settled the invoice twice, so that task reopens. After the fix, build 1187 passes all five automated tests. The log-masking task is verified by R. Iyer, who did not implement it. Nobody verifies their own work.

Pricing · USD

One price per plan. No seat counting.

Every plan SecureSprints every Jira story: triage, seven confirmed stages, an independent review, the threat inventory, and the threat report and developer brief. Plans differ only by projects, automation, hosting and identity. Unlimited members on all of them, so the whole team works from one governed model.

Billed monthly. Cancel any time.

Prices in USD. Pay in US dollars or Indian rupees, through Razorpay. Taxes are added where required. Need a purchase order, invoice or security review first? Talk to us.

Billing

Billing questions

Can I change plans later?

Yes. Upgrades apply straight away and are charged pro rata. Downgrades apply at the next billing date.

What happens to projects over the limit when I downgrade?

Extra projects become read-only. Their threat models and inventory are kept, nothing is deleted, and they become editable again if you upgrade.

Is there a limit on stories modeled?

Plans are priced by project, not by story or seat. Owner to confirm any fair-use limit on AI usage

What happens when I cancel?

You keep access until the end of the paid period. After that, your threat models, reports and inventory stay available for export for 30 days, then they are deleted. We email you before deletion.

Which payment methods do you accept?

Payment is handled by Razorpay, in US dollars or Indian rupees, whichever you choose. Card details never touch SecureSprints. Program customers can also pay by invoice on annual billing.

Do you send invoices and receipts?

Yes. Every payment produces a tax invoice with your company details, available in billing settings.

Paying with an Indian card?

Indian banks ask you to approve every recurring card payment above ₹15,000. On the Release and Program plans, annual billing or invoice payment avoids a monthly approval step.

Grounded AI

Eight controls on every SecureSprinted model

The same controls apply to every story, in every team and project. AI drafts; named people decide; every reference is traceable.

  1. 1

    Named human decisions

    Every stage, approval and accepted risk is recorded against a named person.

  2. 2

    Pinned standards library

    Every reference comes from a built-in, version-pinned library of published standards. References from an AI's memory are refused, even correct ones.

  3. 3

    Evidence on every finding

    Each finding quotes the story or the project profile, or is marked as an inference.

  4. 4

    Complete coverage

    Every part of the design is checked against each relevant framework. "Not applicable" needs a specific reason. Threats proposed by built-in rules must each be answered.

  5. 5

    Independent AI review

    A reviewer working apart from the author can block confirmation until the work is fixed, or a person overrides it in writing.

  6. 6

    Redaction before AI

    Personal and secret data is removed before any AI sees it. Jira is read, never written.

  7. 7

    Tamper-evident audit log

    Every action is written to a hash-chained log, so edits after the fact are detectable.

  8. 8

    Measured accuracy

    Scored against a labelled set of reference designs. Changes to the AI or the rules can't lower the score unnoticed. Figures will be published once an independent expert has reviewed the reference set.

Glossary · 48 terms

Secure development, in plain words

Short definitions of the terms that come up in threat models, security reviews, audits and sprint planning.

A

Abuse case
A description of how someone could misuse a feature, written like a user story from the attacker's side. For example: as an attacker, I resend a captured settlement webhook so an invoice is credited twice. See also misuse case.
Acceptance criteria, security
Conditions a user story must meet to be secure. SecureSprints writes them as security acceptance tests in Given / When / Then form, so each one says how it will be proven.
Attack surface
Every place an attacker can send input to or read output from your system: pages, APIs, file uploads, webhooks, admin tools and AI features. Each new story can grow it.
ASVS
The OWASP Application Security Verification Standard. A catalogue of testable security requirements, grouped into three levels. Version 5.0 is part of the standards library SecureSprints references.
Autopilot
An optional SecureSprints setting that confirms only the low-risk modeling stages (business objectives, weaknesses and attack modeling) on the modeller's behalf. It always stops for a person at triage, scope, decomposition, threat analysis, risk, any warning or blocking finding, and approval. Its actions are recorded under the person's name and marked autopilot.

B

Broken access control
When users can act outside their permissions, such as reading another customer's records by changing an ID in a URL. It tops the OWASP Top 10 and usually starts as a design gap.
Business logic flaw
A weakness in how a feature's rules work, not in the code's syntax. Applying a discount twice or skipping a payment step are examples. Scanners rarely find them.

C

CAPEC
MITRE's Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification. A catalogue of the ways attackers exploit weaknesses, used at the attack modeling stage to describe how a threat would be carried out.
CWE
MITRE's Common Weakness Enumeration. A numbered list of software and hardware weakness types, such as CWE-345, insufficient verification of data authenticity. SecureSprints ties each finding to its CWE entries at the weakness analysis stage.

D

Data flow diagram
A drawing of how data moves between users, services and stores, with trust boundaries marked. SecureSprints drafts one for each story at the decomposition stage for a person to confirm.
Defense in depth
Using several independent controls so that one failure does not expose the system. For example, validating input in the API and also restricting the database account.
Delta re-model
Modeling only what changed in a story against what the project already knows, instead of starting over. SecureSprints suggests one when a code change touches threats from an earlier model.
Design flaw
A security weakness built into how a feature is meant to work, as opposed to a coding mistake. Fixing one after release usually means rework, which is why SecureSprints models each story before it is built.
Developer brief
An export of an approved threat model as security tasks that a team or a coding agent can pick up, each with the test that proves it.

F

Four-eyes confirmation
A rule that a sensitive change needs a second person to confirm it. In SecureSprints, an update to a confirmed project profile, or a repository connection, needs a second person.

G

Given / When / Then
A plain format for a test: the starting situation, the action, and the expected result. For example: given a settlement webhook whose event ID was already processed, when it arrives again, then the invoice is not credited a second time.

I

Independent reviewer
In SecureSprints, a separate AI that works apart from the one drafting the model and challenges each stage from threat analysis onward. It can only report findings. A blocking finding, such as a wrong category or a coverage hole, stops confirmation until it is fixed or a person overrides it in writing.

L

Least privilege
Giving each user, service and key only the access it needs, and no more. SecureSprints follows it by reading Jira without writing to it.
LINDDUN
A privacy threat modeling method that sorts threats into linking, identifying, non-repudiation, detecting, data disclosure, unawareness and non-compliance. It complements STRIDE for features that handle personal data.

M

Misuse case
A way a feature could be abused or could fail in a harmful way. SecureSprints imagines misuse cases for each story so the model covers what users shouldn't do, not only what they should.
MITRE ATLAS
A knowledge base of real attack techniques against AI and machine-learning systems, such as prompt injection and model evasion. Used to model stories that add AI features.
MITRE ATT&CK
A knowledge base of attacker tactics and techniques observed in real intrusions. Used at the attack modeling stage alongside CAPEC.

O

OWASP Top 10
A widely used list of the ten most critical web application security risks, published by the OWASP Foundation. The 2025 edition sits alongside separate lists for APIs, LLM applications and agentic applications.

P

PASTA
Process for Attack Simulation and Threat Analysis. A published, risk-centric threat modeling method in seven stages: business objectives, technical scope, decomposition, threat analysis, weakness analysis, attack modeling, and risk. SecureSprints runs it one stage at a time, with a person confirming each.
Penetration test
An authorised attack on a running system by skilled testers, to find weaknesses a real attacker could exploit. It tests what has been built, usually close to or after release.
PR check
A SecureSprints check on each pull request against the open threats it touches. By policy it informs, warns or blocks. A verified control whose code is removed is reopened.
Project baseline
What earlier approved stories taught SecureSprints about a project. Each new story starts from it, so known components and threats aren't rediscovered every time.
Project profile
A short description of a project's business goals, systems, data and users. SecureSprints drafts it from an intake document or a conversation, a person confirms it, and later changes need a second person.

R

Remediation verification
Checking that a fix actually removed the risk. In SecureSprints a task is verified by CI test results or by a lead who isn't the implementer. Nobody verifies their own work.
Residual risk
The risk that remains after controls are in place. It should be known, small and owned by someone.
Risk acceptance
A recorded decision to live with a risk for now. In SecureSprints only an Approver can accept a risk, and it needs a reason, a named owner and a review date.
Risk burndown
A chart of open security risks across sprints. A healthy line falls toward zero. A flat or rising line shows where risk is building up.

S

SAST
Static application security testing. Tools that read source code to find insecure patterns without running it.
DAST
Dynamic application security testing. Tools that probe a running application from the outside, the way an attacker would.
SCA
Software composition analysis. Tools that list the open-source packages you use and flag known vulnerabilities and licence issues in them.
Secure Definition of Done
A team rule that a story is not done until its security work is finished. With SecureSprints, that means every task is verified or its risk is accepted by an Approver.
Secure Definition of Ready
A team rule that a story cannot enter the build until its security work is defined. With SecureSprints, the approval of the story's threat model is the security part of Definition of Ready.
Secure SDLC
A software development life cycle with security activities in every phase: requirements, design, build, test, release and operation.
Security acceptance test
A test, written in Given / When / Then form, that proves a threat has been dealt with. SecureSprints writes them at the risk stage, and they become the tasks in the threat inventory.
Security champion
A developer on a product team who takes on security as part of their role. Champions are often the modellers in SecureSprints.
Security debt
Known security weaknesses left unfixed, often for speed. Like technical debt, it grows harder to pay down the longer it stays.
Shift left
Moving security work earlier in delivery, toward planning and design, where problems cost less to fix.
STRIDE
A way to sort threats into six classes: spoofing, tampering, repudiation, information disclosure, denial of service and elevation of privilege. Created at Microsoft and widely taught.

T

Threat inventory
A project's list of every approved threat and its tasks, with owner and status: open, planned, in progress, implemented, verified or reopened. Developers, their coding agents and CI work through it.
Threat modeling
A structured look at a design to find how it could be attacked or misused, before it is built. Teams ask what they are building, what can go wrong, what they will do about it, and whether they did a good job. SecureSprints does it for every Jira story, so it happens every sprint instead of once a year.
Triage
The first step of a SecureSprints threat model, stage 0. It proposes how deep to go (full, delta, checklist or not relevant) and what kind of change the story is, such as an API, mobile or AI feature. A person confirms it.
Trust boundary
A line where data passes between parts of a system with different levels of trust, such as from the internet into your API. Most threats appear where data crosses one.

V

VAPT
Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing. A common term, especially in India and the Middle East, for a combined scan and manual test of a running system.

Where SecureSprints fits, and where it doesn't

Most teams need more than one approach. These comparisons say plainly what each does better, and where teams that SecureSprint still run pentests and scanners.

Approaches compared

SecureSprints and pentest-only programs

Where SecureSprints is stronger

  • Approves the security tests for a story before the code exists.
  • Runs on every story, every sprint, not once or twice a year.
  • Verifies each fix in CI and reopens it if it breaks.

Where a pentest is stronger

  • Finds exploitable issues in the running system.
  • Chains small weaknesses the way a real attacker would.
  • Gives customers independent third-party assurance.

Use both. A pentest checks what was built. SecureSprints makes sure the design it tests already had its threats modeled and its fixes verified.

SecureSprints and scanners only

Where SecureSprints is stronger

  • Finds missing controls and business-logic gaps that no code pattern reveals.
  • Sets the security tests before code is written.
  • Watches pull requests against the threats they touch, not just known patterns.

Where scanners are stronger

  • Find known vulnerability patterns across large codebases fast.
  • Check dependencies and containers on every build.

Use both. Scanners check code patterns. SecureSprints checks the design, and your CI test results verify its tasks.

SecureSprints and asking a general AI assistant

Where SecureSprints is stronger

  • Every reference comes from a version-pinned library of published standards. References from an AI's memory are refused, even correct ones.
  • A separate reviewer challenges the work, and its blocking findings stop progress until fixed.
  • Every stage, approval and accepted risk belongs to a named person, in a tamper-evident log.
  • Approved threats become tasks in an inventory that CI verifies.
  • Personal and secret data is redacted before any AI sees it.

Where a general assistant is stronger

  • Free, or already paid for.
  • Quick for brainstorming a single idea.
  • No set-up.

Generating a threat list is cheap now. Grounding it, deciding on it and proving each fix holds is the work SecureSprints does.

SecureSprints and spreadsheet reviews

Where SecureSprints is stronger

  • Every part of the design is checked against each relevant framework. "Not applicable" needs a specific reason.
  • Fixes are verified, not just marked done.
  • Every decision has a named person, and history is kept automatically.

Where spreadsheets are stronger

  • Free and flexible.
  • Fine for a single small project with one reviewer.

SecureSprints and enterprise design review tools

Where SecureSprints is stronger

  • Works per Jira story, inside the sprint. The data-flow diagram is drafted for you to confirm.
  • A threat inventory verified in CI, every sprint.
  • From $99 a month, set up within one business day.

Where enterprise tools are stronger

  • Detailed architecture diagrams and large threat libraries.
  • Governance across hundreds of applications and business units.
  • Established in regulated sectors, with long procurement records.

Pick by team size and pace. Teams that ship every two weeks and want threat modeling in the sprint start here. Central security teams modeling whole systems may need both.

Documentation

SecureSprints is AI threat modeling for every Jira story: grounded in published standards, decided by people, and verified in CI before a fix counts as done. These guides show modellers, approvers, developers and admins how to SecureSprint a project, from the first intake document to CI verification.

Get started · 20 minutes

Model your first story

  1. Request your workspace. Choose a plan, name your workspace and give the admin's details. We set it up within one business day, and the admin gets an email to set a password and turn on multi-factor sign-in.
  2. Set up the project. Upload a short intake document. SecureSprints drafts the project profile, and you confirm it.
  3. Connect Jira. SecureSprints asks for read access only.
  4. Start a story. Find a story in the sprint and start it. Triage proposes how deep to go, and you confirm.
  5. Work through the stages. At each stage, confirm, answer an open question, or send it back with a change request.
  6. Ask for approval. An Approver approves the model. Export the threat model report and the developer brief before anyone writes code.

SecureSprints never writes to Jira. Developers get their security tasks from the developer brief, the threat inventory or their coding agent.

Get started · once per project

Set up a project

A project profile tells SecureSprints what matters before it models any story. An owner or modeller creates it.

Intake document
A short description of business goals, systems, data and users. Upload it, or build the profile by conversation instead.
Project profile
Drafted by SecureSprints from the intake, then confirmed by a person. Any later change to a confirmed profile needs a second person to confirm it.
Code repository
Optional. A DevOps person or a lead proposes the connection, and an Approver confirms it. It is needed for the PR check and to link threats to code.

Get started

Connect Jira

SecureSprints reads stories from Jira and never writes to it. Personal and secret information is redacted from each story before any AI sees it.

Model a story

Triage and the seven stages

Start one story or a batch. Each runs through triage, then the seven stages of PASTA, a published threat modeling method. SecureSprints stops for a person at every stage.

Full
A complete model, for new or high-risk work.
Delta
Only what changed, against what the project already knows.
Checklist
A shorter check for routine changes.
Not relevant
No model needed. Allowed only for low-risk kinds of change.

Triage also proposes what kind of change the story is, such as API, mobile, AI or LLM, cloud, or CI/CD. SecureSprints cross-checks the choice against the story. If the story mentions an API or an AI feature that triage left out, the choice must be fixed or explained.

StageQuestionWhat you see
1 · Business objectivesWhat matters to the business here?Objectives, and why the story is relevant
2 · Technical scopeWhich components, services and AI parts are involved?Components, with flags such as "uses AI" or "acts autonomously"
3 · DecompositionHow does data move, and where are the trust boundaries?Data-flow diagram, assets, entry points, open questions
4 · Threat analysisWhat can go wrong, element by element?Findings with evidence, a completeness matrix, and rule-proposed threats with how each was answered
5 · Weakness analysisWhich known weaknesses are these?Each finding tied to CWE and the OWASP lists
6 · Attack modelingHow would an attacker do it?CAPEC, ATT&CK and ATLAS patterns, and attack trees for serious threats
7 · RiskHow likely, how bad, and how do we prove it's fixed?Severity, scored factors, and security acceptance tests in Given / When / Then

At each stage you can confirm it, answer an open question, or send it back with a change request.

Model a story

Independent review and blocking findings

From stage 4 onward, an independent reviewer challenges the work before you can confirm it. It is a separate AI that works apart from the one drafting the model, and it can only report findings. It never edits the model.

A blocking finding, such as a wrong threat category, a wrong standard mapping or a gap in coverage, stops confirmation until the stage is fixed and reviewed again. A person can override it with a written reason. The override is recorded.

Verified
A reference checked against SecureSprints' built-in library of published standards.
Unlinked
A finding without a reference. It needs a reason.
AI-derived
An inference, stated as one, rather than something quoted from the story or the profile.
Invalid
A reference that isn't in the library. It is refused, even if it is correct.

Model a story · optional

Autopilot

A modeller can let SecureSprints confirm the low-risk stages on their behalf: business objectives, weakness analysis and attack modeling.

  • It always stops for a person at triage, technical scope, decomposition, threat analysis and risk.
  • It stops at any warning, open question or blocking review finding.
  • Approval is always a person's.
  • Every autopilot action is recorded under your name and marked autopilot.

Model a story

Approve and export

An Approver reads the assembled model and approves it, or sends it back to any stage. The approval is bound to the exact content, so a later edit needs a new approval.

  • Threat model report, in HTML or Markdown, for reviewers and auditors.
  • Developer brief: the security work as tasks a team or a coding agent can pick up, each with its test.

What the story taught joins the project baseline, so the next story starts from it.

Build and verify

The threat inventory and task statuses

Every approved threat lands in the project's threat inventory with its tasks. Each task is one security acceptance test.

Open
Approved, not yet scheduled.
Planned
Scheduled into a sprint.
In progress
Claimed by a developer or their coding agent.
Implemented
Done, with evidence attached, waiting to be verified.
Verified
Confirmed by CI test results, or by a lead who isn't the implementer.
Reopened
A test failed, or the code behind a verified control was removed.

Nobody verifies their own work. An Approver can accept a risk, with a reason, an owner and a review date, or mark a threat not applicable.

Build and verify · API on request

Send CI test results

Post test results from your pipeline. SecureSprints matches each result to the task whose test it names, and verifies the task when it passes.

curl -X POST https://acme.securesprints.ai/api/v1/test-results \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SECURESPRINTS_CI_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "commit": "9f2c4e1",
    "build": "1187",
    "test": "test_same_settlement_event_id_settles_once",
    "result": "pass"
  }'

The API is available to workspace admins on request: email hello@securesprints.ai. The request above is illustrative. CI tokens can only post test results. They can't read or change anything else.

Build and verify

PR check policies

With a repository connected, SecureSprints checks each pull request against the open threats it touches. Choose a policy per project.

Inform
A comment on the pull request lists the threats it touches.
Warn
The check is marked as a warning until the related tasks are addressed.
Block
The check fails until the related tasks are addressed, or an Approver accepts the risk.

If a pull request removes the code behind a verified control, the task reopens. A story whose threats are touched is suggested for a delta re-model.

Build and verify

Connect a coding agent

Developers can work through the threat inventory with their coding agent. The agent reads threats and developer briefs over a secure connection, set up from the project's Integrations page.

  • It can claim a task and propose a fix.
  • It can never mark a task verified. That comes from CI or a lead.
  • Instructions found in code are never followed, and secrets are never read.

Single sign-on and SCIM

Connect any SAML 2.0 or OpenID Connect identity provider, such as Microsoft Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace. Turn on SCIM to create and remove members from your directory automatically.

  1. Open Settings, then Identity. Copy the sign-on URL and entity ID.
  2. Create the app in your identity provider. Paste the values and download the metadata.
  3. Upload the metadata. Test with one account before you enforce single sign-on for everyone.

About

Threat modeling for every story, not once a year.

We built SecureSprints so every team in an organisation can SecureSprint its work the same way: modeled before build, decided by named people, verified in CI.

We built SecureSprints because threat models were happening too late and too rarely, and because a fix marked done was too often not done at all.

SecureSprints is AI threat modeling for every Jira story: grounded in published standards, decided by people, and verified in CI before a fix counts as done.

AI drafts. People decide. Standards verify. AI drafts each stage; named people confirm, approve and accept risk. Every reference it cites must come from a version-pinned library of published standards, and a separate reviewer challenges its work before anyone confirms it.

How we run the company

  • Prices are on the website. Anyone can start without a sales call.
  • We read your Jira and never write to it.
  • Personal and secret data is redacted before any AI sees it.
  • We never ask customers for cloud keys.
  • We publish accuracy figures only once an expert has reviewed the reference set they are measured against.
  • We say what the product does today, not what it might do.
