Social engineering is a broad term for a wide range of tactics and techniques used by criminal attackers that exploit the human element. While cyber attacks combine a range of different tactics, it is clear that there is one very common risk denominator – us humans. “While the threats against us may “seem” innumerable, infinitely varied, and ever-changing, the reality is they aren’t. The common denominator across the top four patterns of security incidents – accounting for nearly 90% of incidents – is people. Whether it’s goofing up, getting infected, behaving badly or losing stuff.”
“Almost no company, whether large or small, is immune to spear-phishing. Five out of six large (2,500 + employees) companies were targeted with spear-phishing attacks during 2014 – a 40% increase over the previous year. Small and medium-sized businesses also saw an uptick, with attacks increasing 26% and 30%, respectively.”
Why bother to do all the heavy lifting involved with “hacking” when you can just ask someone to do something for you? While there is a technical component the attack is against human nature.
