of the following best describes a network threat model and Its uses?

A network threat model is a risk-based model used to evaluate potential threats to a network. It helps in assessing the probability of different types of attacks, the potential damage these attacks can cause, and the prioritization of these threats. By doing so, it aids in minimizing or eliminating the threats by focusing security efforts on the most significant risks. The threat model provides a structured approach to identify, categorize, and address threats based on their severity and impact. (Reference: IAPP CIPT Study Guide, Chapter on Threat Modeling)
