From there, the affect of exploration depends on the system effected. ]]> 2022-02-28 01:46:37 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068655372 What can we do to help prevent attackers from leveraging social engineering for their own benefit? smulli36 https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068655702 Individual awareness is key, but limiting what information is online or vulnerable in the first place can also help. ]]> 2022-02-28 01:46:49 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068655702 How do cyber attackers leverage social engineering to go after a target? smulli36 https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068655876 Again they typically gain access to a system they should not have had access to. ]]> 2022-02-28 01:47:00 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068655876 A more in depth introduction from CompTIA: smulli36 https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068660440 2022-02-28 01:51:24 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068660440 An example of the intersection between social engineering and cybersecurity: smulli36 https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068666399 2022-02-28 01:57:50 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068666399 Common types of social engineering attacks: smulli36 https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068669287 2022-02-28 02:00:34 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068669287 Extensive additional resource: smulli36 https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068671620 2022-02-28 02:02:57 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068671620 Lecture on social engineering defense mechanisms: smulli36 https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068673604 2022-02-28 02:04:56 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068673604 An example of targeted social engineering: smulli36 https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068676817 2022-02-28 02:07:57 UTC https://padlet.com/smulli36/y3kqhqhkkufpqk9z/wish/2068676817
