Threat model¶
Short definition¶
Specify what you protect, from whom, and under which constraints.
Concrete example¶
Alice wants to hide her number from Bob; another person refuses a number even at the service. Their choices differ.
What it protects¶
Makes comparisons and configuration conditions useful.
What it does not protect¶
It is neither a guarantee nor a global score replacing unknowns.
Why it matters¶
Two users can have different good choices without contradiction.
