Social Engineering
This book analyses the use of social engineering as a tool to hack random systems and target specific systems in several dimensions of society. It shows how social engineering techniques are employed well beyond what hackers do to penetrate computer systems.
Furthermore, it explains how organisations and individuals can socially engineer their culture to help minimise the impact of the activities of those who lie, cheat, deceive, and defraud. After reading Social Engineering, you’ll be able to analyse how organisations work and understand the need for security to maintain operations and sustainability.
You will also be able to identify, respond to, and counter socially engineered threats to security.
