What is Social Engineering? - Sedara Whiteboard Series

Sedara Season 1 Episode 8

 Many organizations focus on technological controls to protect their assets. But that’s only part of the story! Smart attackers use social engineering to achieve their goals in compromising networks and data. In a social engineering attack vector, attackers lie or present deceptive fronts to convince people to divulge information or take some action that allows the attackers access.

 Sedara offers a phishing assessment, in which we send out communication and assess the rate of “success”. We can also include social engineering in our penetration testing or security assessments. This service includes a deeper approach, in which we integrate the results of the phishing campaign into our assessment of overall security. Please let us know how we can help you!
