Presented at DEF CON 13 (2005), July 29, 2005, 3:30 p.m. (20 minutes)

Social Engineering Do's and Don'ts is more informative then technical. Over the course of the lecture, I plan on going over some information you may not have thought of in your pursuits. Such as, telephone surveys, the importance of being well informed, along with basics such as the importance of both phone & social etiquette, surveillance, going undercover, corporate fraud and of course identity theft. There will be live demonstrations & explanations. This is the talk for everything you wanted to know about social engineering but were to technical to ask.
