Abstract

To enhance the security of mobile devices, enterprises are developing and adopting mobile device management systems. However, if a mobile device management system is exploited, mobile devices and the data they contain will be compromised. Therefore, it is important to perform extensive threat modeling to develop realistic and meaningful security requirements and functionalities. In this paper, we analyze some current threat modeling methodologies, propose a new threat modeling methodology and present all possible threats against a mobile device management system by analyzing and identifying threat agents, assets, and adverse actions. This work will be used for developing security requirements such as a protection profile and design a secure system.
