Research direction

Start by reading the Threat Model page at https://docs.securedrop.org/en/stable/threat_model/threat_model.html and review its current preamble and links. Update the preamble to contextualize the published threat model beyond the outdated Tails-based system, while retaining broadly relevant content; done means the page reflects this context and its links are current.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

docs-rewrite

The preamble at the top of the Threat Model page (https://docs.securedrop.org/en/stable/threat_model/threat_model.html) is out of date. It should be updated to better contextualize the published threat model. It was written exclusively for the Tails-based system which will be out of date (being supplanted by SecureDrop Workstation), but still contains broadly relevant content.

A new comprehensive threat model for SecureDrop Workstation is presumably forthcoming. Whenever that is ready for publication, the threat model page can be entirely updated.
