Threat modeling is an invaluable part of secure software development. However the use of threat modeling tools has not been well documented, even though they are an important asset. In this paper we examine and compare the two prominent threat modeling tools OWASP Threat Dragon and Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool. We outline core concepts related to threat modeling, namely threat identification approaches, data flow diagrams and the importance of risk analysis.
