Social engineering is the use of psychological manipulation and deception to influence individuals to perform actions or divulge sensitive information.
It's a tactic often used by hackers and cybercriminals to gain access to systems, networks, or physical locations by tricking people into revealing passwords, opening malicious links, or performing actions that compromise security.
Some examples of social engineering tactics include phishing attacks, pretexting, baiting, and scareware. In a phishing attack, an attacker may send an email or message pretending to be from a legitimate organization and trick the victim into clicking a link or providing sensitive information.
Pretexting involves creating a fake identity or scenario to convince the victim to divulge information. Baiting involves offering something appealing to the victim in exchange for information or access.
Scareware involves scaring the victim into taking a specific action, such as installing malicious software.
Social engineering attacks can be difficult to detect because they rely on manipulating human psychology rather than exploiting technical vulnerabilities. It is important to be aware of these tactics and to be cautious when providing sensitive information or clicking links online.
