Phishing, Whaling: Beyond Technology Social Engineering...

Presented at CarolinaCon 13 (2017), May 19, 2017, 7:15 p.m. (60 minutes).

The consistent and critical weakness in all cyber systems is the human. So much of cyber security focuses on "Technology" social engineering (phishing, whaling, etc). Yet these "technology" social engineering techniques are such a small possibility over the full social engineering realm at an attackers finger tips.

In this talk we will walk and talk the audience through 5 very simple, easy but profound social engineering skills that can be used to enhance "technology" social engineering, as well as move the offsec professional to more direct human-to-human attack vectors. For each technique I will provide real life stories of how effectively I have used them as I walk the audience through using them.
