Social Engineering Attacks
Introduction
In the realm of cybersecurity, one of the most effective attack vectors does not involve sophisticated hacking tools or technical exploits. Instead, it preys on human psychology. Social engineering attacks manipulate individuals into divulging confidential information or performing actions that compromise security.
This type of attack is often seen as the “art of deception,” as it bypasses technological defenses by targeting the human element, which is often the weakest link in the security chain. In this white paper, we will explore the different types of social engineering attacks, notable incidents, and how organizations can defend against them.
