    As a security engineer myself, this is SO true that the end user is the weakest link in the security chain. I was recently called by a company staff member who stated our CIO is OS and lost his password and needs it reset. Red flag to me. I called the CIO and he stated the issue is not his password but he could not access our network via the VPN from his location. I simply helped the CIO to use another VPN destination and this worked for him. The staff member who asked for the password reset was sacked last week.

    thank you very much, this has been useful. Everything makes sense, how they dig up information, save to a database, add your phone number and pass it around, then they try to use social engineering skills to dig up more information from you and steal your data or finance.

    9:20 I agree that fear is by far the most effective method for bad actors to coerce, or even simply convince somebody to act against their instincts or better judgment; especially when it’s ramped up with a sense of urgency, like you mentioned. The target is most vulnerable if the bad actor is able to find their biggest vulnerabilities. That with a sense of urgency combined will give attacker the highest likelihood of success. Yes, it’s cruel, but it would be naïve to think the fallout from these attacks really Waze on bad actors conscience.

    This reminds me of an email I got recently on my college email. I noticed it told me I has 24 hours to reset my password or my account would be “locked” and I honestly almost believed them, but it was phrased in such a threatening way, as to inspire a sense of urgency in me, so I didnt take it seriously. I ended up copying and pasting the email into google, and found out it was some scam email

    1st scenario:How you got organisation domain name in from
    2nd: how the attacker in the first place without access to computer of victim got to know their is malware on system, isn't it silly how he got scammed.
    I don't think this example is right.

    • @jeffcrume
      @jeffcrume 11 місяців тому

      The attacker doesn’t need to put malware on the victim’s system. They just need to convince the victim that it’s there and then to download the Trojan, which they say will fix the problem. This scenario plays out every day. I have two family members who have encountered it. Thankfully, they knew enough not to fall prey, but that’s only because they have me preaching this sort of stuff to them all the time.

    Is he writing backwards? In order for him to be writing like that and facing us while still having it be legible by the audience he would have to be writing backwards. Both the the word and the letters themselves would have to be reversed.
