What I Learned
- Understand attacker mindset to identify weak points before exploitation.
- Translate common exploit patterns into stronger application safeguards.
- Integrate security checks earlier in the software lifecycle.
How I Applied This
- Used threat scenarios to prioritize high-risk fixes during development.
- Added secure coding checkpoints before production deployment.
- Improved vulnerability response speed with clearer severity mapping.
