Can Causal (and Counterfactual) Reasoning improve Privacy Threat Modelling?. (arXiv:2207.09746v1 [cs.CR])

Causal questions often permeate in our day-to-day activities. With causal
reasoning and counterfactual intuition, privacy threats can not only be
alleviated but also prevented. In this paper, we discuss what is causal and
counterfactual reasoning and how this can be applied in the field of privacy
threat modelling (PTM). We believe that the future of PTM relies on how we can
causally and counterfactually imagine cybersecurity threats and incidents.
