What basic knowledge should I have before choosing "Threat Risk modeling" as my career. (Looking for detailed feedback ) Thank you
You need a basic knowledge of application security principles, threats, attacks, vulnerabilities, and countermeasures. Check the OWASP Honeycomb Project for the basic information you need. You should also read about the process of threat modeling. There are a few books on the subject, including "Threat Modeling" and "Secure Development Lifecycle" from the Microsoft Press. Note - it's not yet clear whether "Threat Risk modeling" is actually a career yet. There are clear careers as an "application security architect" and "application security tester" (including cod review).

webmaster: security warning
I'm getting a "security warning" when navigating to most pages. Can this be fixed globally?
