Description

Overview
 

Dive into the sneaky world of social engineering and learn how to spot insider threats before they cause trouble.

Social engineering is one of the most deceptive and effective tactics used by cybercriminals today — and it doesn't rely on complex code or sophisticated malware. Instead, it exploits the most vulnerable element in any security system: human psychology. From phishing emails and pretexting to baiting and impersonation, attackers manipulate people into divulging sensitive information or granting unauthorized access. This event dives deep into these techniques, helping attendees recognize the warning signs and understand how easily trust can be weaponized.

 

Equally dangerous — and often overlooked — is the threat that comes from within. Insider threats, whether malicious or unintentional, pose a significant risk to organizations of all sizes. Employees, contractors, or partners with legitimate access can inadvertently or deliberately compromise data, systems, and operations. This session will equip participants with practical strategies to identify suspicious behavior, foster a security-aware culture, and implement safeguards that protect organizations from the inside out.
