+EL3 SPMC Threat Model
+*********************
+
+************
+Introduction
+************
+This document provides a threat model for the TF-A `EL3 Secure Partition Manager`_
+(EL3 SPM) implementation. The EL3 SPM implementation is based on the
+`Arm Firmware Framework for Arm A-profile`_ specification.
+
+********************
+Target of Evaluation
+********************
+In this threat model, the target of evaluation is the ``Secure Partition Manager Core``
+component (SPMC) within the EL3 firmware.
+The monitor and SPMD at EL3 are covered by the `Generic TF-A threat model`_.
+
+The scope for this threat model is:
+
+- The TF-A implementation for the EL3 SPMC
+- The implementation complies with the FF-A v1.1 specification.
+- Secure partition is statically provisioned at boot time.
+- Focus on the run-time part of the life-cycle (no specific emphasis on boot
+  time, factory firmware provisioning, firmware udpate etc.)
+- Not covering advanced or invasive physical attacks such as decapsulation,
+  FIB etc.
+
+Data Flow Diagram
+=================
+Figure 1 shows a high-level data flow diagram for the SPM split into an SPMD
+and SPMC component at EL3. The SPMD mostly acts as a relayer/pass-through between
+the normal world and the secure world. It is assumed to expose small attack surface.
+
+A description of each diagram element is given in Table 1. In the diagram, the
+red broken lines indicate trust boundaries.
+
+Components outside of the broken lines are considered untrusted.

+Threat Analysis
+***************
+
+This threat model follows a similar methodology to the `Generic TF-A threat model`_.
+The following sections define:
+
+- Trust boundaries
+- Assets
+- Theat agents
+- Threat types
+
+Trust boundaries
+================
+
+- Normal world is untrusted.
+- Secure world and normal world are separate trust boundaries.
+- EL3 monitor, SPMD and SPMC are trusted.
+- Bootloaders (in particular BL1/BL2 if using TF-A) and run-time BL31 are
+  implicitely trusted by the usage of trusted boot.
+- EL3 monitor, SPMD, SPMC do not trust SPs.
+
+Assets
+======
+
+The following assets are identified:
+
+- SPMC state.
+- SP state.
+- Information exchange between endpoints (partition messages).
+- SPMC secrets (e.g. pointer authentication key when enabled)
+- SP secrets (e.g. application keys).
+- Scheduling cycles.
+- Shared memory.
+
+Threat Agents
+=============
+
+The following threat agents are identified:
+
+- Non-secure endpoint (referred NS-Endpoint later): normal world client at
+  NS-EL2 (Hypervisor) or NS-EL1 (VM or OS kernel).
+- Secure endpoint (referred as S-Endpoint later): typically a secure partition.
+- Hardware attacks (non-invasive) requiring a physical access to the device,
+  such as bus probing or DRAM stress.
+
+Threat types
+============
+
+The following threat categories as exposed in the `Generic TF-A threat model`_
+are re-used:
+
+- Spoofing
+- Tampering
+- Repudiation
+- Information disclosure
+- Denial of service
+- Elevation of privileges
+
+Similarly this threat model re-uses the same threat risk ratings. The risk
+analysis is evaluated based on the environment being ``Server`` or ``Mobile``.
+IOT is not evaluated as the EL3 SPMC is primarily meant for use in Client.
+
+Threat Assessment
+=================
+
+The following threats are identified by applying STRIDE analysis on each diagram
+element of the data flow diagram.
