Social Engineers use shortcuts built into every human brain that allows anyone the ability to get people to do what they want.

This happens WAY more than you’d think

and it works more often than you would expect.

In fact, people are the weakest link when it comes to cybersecurity.

Don’t believe me?

Have you ever gotten an email saying you received a large amount of money?

Or got a phone call saying you had a problem with your computer?

Those are very basic and VERY bad examples of social engineering but even they work.

If they didn’t, these scams wouldn’t make any money and you would have never heard of them

But we know that’s not the case.

So the question is HOW does this work?

In this course, you’ll learn the techniques used by social engineers by seeing real-world examples.

Even if you can spot a fake email a mile away There are many other techniques a skilled professional can use.

Whether you want to do penetration testing, or simply educate your clients, this course will give you the foundation you need to have a firm grasp on the concept of Social Engineering.

I’ll be adding to this course over time, so once enrolled you can let me know what other information you’d like to see added.
