PLOT4AI Online Assessment

This tool allows you to quickly perform a threat modeling session based on relevant risk categories from the PLOT4AI library. You can include the entire card deck, or narrow your focus to specific categories and/or AI lifecycle phases.

The online assessment is based on the physical card deck and offers a structured, guided process.

After making your selections, you’ll be presented with the relevant threat cards. Simply answer the questions, and your selected threats will be compiled into a downloadable report. The report includes a template to help you further classify threats and assign mitigation actions.

Answering the questions on the cards

Use these buttons to answer the questions presented on the cards.

  • : Yes
  • : Not Sure
  • : No

When you give an answer, you automatically go to the next question.
If you want to review your answers, you can use the navigation buttons (see step 3); the answer will be highlighted with a darker colour

Navigation

Use these buttons to navigate through the cards.

  • : Previous Card
  • : Next Card

Please note that they behave differently depending on the filter that is selected (see next step for explanation)


Once you start the assessment, the categories that you selected will get bookmark buttons Category Bookmark which will quickly bring you to the first card of that category.

Filter the cards while navigating

  • When the value all is selected in the filter, the navigation buttons will go through the cards one by one.
    When you reach the first card, the previous-button will stop working and when you reach the last card, the next-button will stop working.
  • When the value unanswered is selected, the navigation buttons will take you to the next (or previous) unanswered question. In this mode, when you reach the last (or first) card, it will start again from the beginning (or end). Still not clear? Just give it a try ;-)

You can use this to monitor your progress.
