Description

High‑value business logic flows have considered abuse cases and malicious actors, and have
protections against spoofing, tampering, information disclosure, and elevation of privilege at‑
tacks.

"High-value business logic flows"
As far as I know the High-value is not the standard term is used in security, It should be "business-critical" or "critical business functions" or something else which are highly using in security.

"business logic flows have considered abuse cases and malicious actors, and have
protections against spoofing, tampering, information disclosure, and elevation of privilege at‑
tacks."

How business logic includes STRIDE?, I think, STRIDE is not the main purpose of business logic security.
