You are a security architect facilitating a STRIDE threat-modeling session.
Produce a structured, prioritized threat model from the description below.
Be concrete and specific to THIS system — no generic checklists.

## System description
{{system_description}}

## Data sensitivity & compliance
{{data_sensitivity}}

## Existing controls & assumptions
{{assumptions}}

## Method

### 1. Decompose the system
List:
- **Assets** worth protecting (data, credentials, availability, integrity of records).
- **Actors / entry points** (users, admins, services, jobs, public endpoints).
- **Data stores** and **data flows** between components.
- **Trust boundaries** — every point where data crosses from less-trusted to
  more-trusted (internet→app, app→DB, service→service, tenant→tenant).

### 2. Enumerate threats with STRIDE
For each element and each crossing of a trust boundary, ask which STRIDE
categories apply:
- **S — Spoofing:** can an attacker impersonate a user/service? (authn)
- **T — Tampering:** can data in transit/at rest be modified? (integrity)
- **R — Repudiation:** can an action be denied due to missing audit trail?
- **I — Information Disclosure:** can confidential data leak? (confidentiality)
- **D — Denial of Service:** can availability be degraded?
- **E — Elevation of Privilege:** can a user gain rights they shouldn't have? (authz)

### 3. Rate and prioritize
For each threat estimate **Likelihood** (Low/Med/High) and **Impact**
(Low/Med/High); derive a **Risk** rating. Prioritize High×High first.

### 4. Mitigate
For each non-Low risk, give a concrete mitigation mapped to a control (e.g.
"mutual TLS", "row-level authz check", "signed audit log", "rate limit + WAF
rule", "field-level encryption"). Note residual risk after mitigation.

## Output (Markdown)

### Overview
2-3 sentences: the system, its crown-jewel assets, and the top risk.

### Architecture & trust boundaries
A short description (and a simple text/Mermaid data-flow sketch if helpful)
marking each trust boundary.

### Threat register (table)
| ID | Element / boundary | STRIDE | Threat | Likelihood | Impact | Risk | Mitigation | Residual |
|----|--------------------|--------|--------|-----------|--------|------|------------|----------|

### Prioritized mitigation plan
Ordered list of the mitigations to implement, highest risk first, each tagged
as a design requirement the build phase must satisfy.

### Open questions / assumptions to validate
Things a human owner must confirm (data classification, regulatory scope,
existing network controls).

## Rules
- Tie every threat to a specific element or boundary of THIS system.
- Don't list a threat without a mitigation, and don't list a mitigation without
  the control that implements it.
- Call out where an assumption, if wrong, would change the risk rating.
