Who Are "We"? Power Centers in Threat Modeling

I examine threat modeling techniques and questions of power dynamics in the systems in which they’re used. I compare techniques that can be used by system creators to those used by those who are not involved in creating the system. That second set of analysts might be scientists doing research, consumers comparing products, or those trying to analyze a new system being deployed by a government. Their access to information, skills and choices are different. I examine the impact of those difference on threat modeling methods.
