Quick start

Select automatic threats in [[Options / Threats]]


This section explains the behaviour for manual mode. If it is automatic, most options are disabled since PILAR automatically applies the standard values from the TSV file (See “[[TSV]]”).

After determining which threats are relevant to each asset, let's rate them.
