The threats of social engineering

This week we’re going to talk about the threats of social engineering. We take from each section, paraphraise where needed, and quote when needed.

The article we’re taking from is titled Unraveling the Threats of Social Engineering which comes to us from Lastpass.

There are four different types of threats, and we’ll be talking about each.

Those threats are:

1. Phishing
2. Baiting
3. Business Email Compromise (BEC)

Pretexting

We’ve talked about two of these many, many times. But what about Pretexting? That was new to me. So was baighting.

This article covers everything that you want to learn, and we’ve broken them down in to sections in the show notes.

I hope that you enjoy learning with us. I definitely learned something new. Will you?
