The correct answer is Enumerating likely attacker tactics and specific exploitation scenarios against the application.

This activity is correct because preparing misuse and abuse cases requires thinking like an attacker and listing likely tactics and concrete exploitation scenarios. By enumerating attacker goals, entry points, required preconditions, and specific exploit paths you can identify realistic threats, prioritize testing, and design targeted mitigations and controls.

Running vulnerability aggregation and findings analysis with Google Cloud Security Command Center is incorrect because that activity focuses on collecting and managing discovered vulnerabilities and findings in an environment rather than proactively imagining how the application could be misused by an attacker. It is useful for remediation but it does not by itself produce misuse scenarios.

Reviewing the application functional requirements and user stories for gaps is incorrect because reviewing requirements can reveal functional issues and missing security needs but it does not directly enumerate attacker tactics or specific exploitation scenarios. It is a complementary activity that helps inform threat modeling but it is not the primary step for misuse case development.

Mapping data sensitivity classifications to storage and processing categories is incorrect because data classification supports impact assessment and control selection rather than identifying how an attacker would exploit the application. It helps determine protection levels but it does not replace the attacker-focused analysis needed for misuse and abuse cases.
