Adds a draft project-level security threat-model document (draft-THREAT-MODEL.md) at repo root, improving discoverability for automated security scanners running against this repository. The file follows the rubric format used by several other ASF projects piloting security-model discoverability. The "draft-" prefix signals this is a proposal for the PMC to review, correct, or reject — not a finalised maintainer-blessed model. Every claim carries a provenance tag (documented / inferred / maintainer) so reviewers can see where each claim originates; §14 collects open questions for the maintainers.

There's a lot of details in the draft that needs a better set of eyes, so assigning @DaanHoogland @vishesh92 who're also PMC leads on the work. |
…po copy Drop the standalone draft-THREAT-MODEL.md and wire the discoverability chain AGENTS.md -> SECURITY.md -> the project-wide model in apache/cloudstack (apache/cloudstack#13293), so scanners find one canonical model and this repo inherits it rather than duplicating it.

Summary
Apache CloudStack's security model is project-wide, not per-repository. This PR replaces the earlier standalone
draft-THREAT-MODEL.mdin this repo with the standard discoverability chain so automated scanners find the one canonical model:AGENTS.md→SECURITY.md→ the project-wide model athttps://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/main/THREAT_MODEL.mdThe model lives in
apache/cloudstack(see apache/cloudstack#13293); this repo inherits it via the pointer above rather than duplicating it — per the PMC's direction on #13293 to converge on the parent model first. The link resolves once that model lands onmain. A thin repo-specific addendum can be added here later if this component needs one.AGENTS.mdcarries a one-line SPDX header (it is read by agents on every session);SECURITY.mdcarries the full ASF header.
