SOCIAL ENGINEERING
Consulting services focused on social engineering play a crucial role in educating organizational employees on how to recognize potential social engineering attacks and take preventive measures for the future. Enhancing employees’ ability to identify potential attacks significantly increases the likelihood of averting information and data leaks.
One effective approach to preventing social engineering attacks involves providing hands-on experience, albeit in a simulated environment. Our consultancy engages organizations and their employees in discussions about common themes and tactics employed by cyber attackers. Notable tactics discussed, particularly within email scenarios, include:
- Baiting
- Displaying Distrust or Creating Conflict
- Imitation of a Trusted Source
- Responding to a Question That Had Never Been Asked Before
Organizations and their employees equipped to defend against such attacks substantially diminish the risk of falling victim to them. Our social engineering consulting services outline best practices and protective methods to safeguard against social engineering attacks.
