About this Course

One of the greatest dangers of social engineering is that the attacks do not have to work against everyone: A single successfully fooled victim can provide enough information to trigger an attack that can affect an entire organization.

Over time, social engineering attacks have grown increasingly sophisticated. Not only do fake websites or emails look realistic enough to fool victims into revealing data that can be used for identity theft, social engineering has also become one of the most common ways for attackers to breach an organizations initial defenses in order to cause further disruption and harm.

In this course, "Social Engineering and Defenses", you see : What is social engineering?, How and why social engineering works, Types of social engineering attacks, Baiting, Tailgating, Pretexting, Quid pro quo, Scareware, Watering hole attack, and Social engineering defenses. You find the lectures (Videos 10+10+10+09 = 39, Total : 39 minutes), (4 pages in the pdf) and Quiz.
