Description

This week, Kevin will continue our coverage on social engineering—using deception to manipulate human behavior. Our topics in this episode are additional threats on your technical electronic controls--phishing, vishing and smishing. And while the names of these tactics may sound strange or even silly, you better believe they are very effective at gaining access to otherwise protected assets! Not familiar with the concept of social engineering? Check out our blog for an intro to this deceptive practice designed to take advantage of human nature to bypass your electronic security (https://www.a1ops.com/what-is-social-engineering/).
