stride-gpt
An AI-powered threat modeling tool that leverages OpenAI's GPT models to generate threat models for a given application based on the STRIDE methodology.
No outside reports on file
Use this tool as one part of your threat modeling process, not as your only security check—always have security experts review the AI output, keep API keys private, and be careful about what application details you share with the model.
Based on public adoption and transparency signals as of Oct 27, 2026. Our opinion, not a code audit or security guarantee.

About Stride Gpt
This tool uses OpenAI's GPT models to automatically create threat models for applications following the STRIDE methodology (a framework for thinking about security risks: Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information Disclosure, Denial of Service, Elevation of Privilege). It analyzes an application and generates potential threats an AI system might not catch on its own.
Who it’s for
Security teams, developers, and architects who want AI assistance in identifying potential threats to their applications early in design. It's useful for anyone learning threat modeling or needing to speed up the security review process.
Alternatives
- Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool: Official Microsoft tool for STRIDE analysis with manual design input.
- ThreatDragon: Free, open-source threat modeling tool with visual diagramming.
- Threats Manager: Commercial tool for structured threat modeling and risk assessment.
Setup
Check these steps against the project’s own instructions before running anything.
Follow the project's README at the GitHub link provided for installation instructions, as this tool may require OpenAI API credentials and specific configuration steps.
Why this grade
Signal-based grade (3/7 points): well starred on GitHub, public source code. This reflects adoption and transparency, not a code review.

Risks to watch for
- API key exposure: The tool needs an OpenAI API key, which could leak if not stored securely in environment variables or accidentally committed to version control.
- Incomplete threat models: AI-generated threat models may miss real vulnerabilities or hallucinate false threats, leading to false confidence in security.
- Prompt injection: Malicious application descriptions or code fed into the tool could trick the AI into generating misleading or harmful recommendations.
- Sensitive data in prompts: Application details, architecture, or code sent to OpenAI's API may be logged and could expose internal system design to third parties.
- Over-reliance on AI: Teams might skip human security review because they trust the AI output, missing context-specific risks only humans understand.
How to lower the risk
Least-privilege permissions
- Run the tool with minimal API access scopes.
- Restrict who can view or modify threat model outputs.
Network isolation
- Keep API calls over HTTPS only.
- Don't share API keys in logs or team chat.
Monitoring
- Track which applications have been analyzed and when.
- Review OpenAI API usage for unexpected activity.
Red flags to watch for
- Sudden spikes in API costs or request volume.
- AI-generated threats that don't match your application's design.
- Team members treating AI output as final security approval.
