Describe Social engineering and name 2 examples

Social engineering is a manipulation technique that exploits human error to gain private information, access, or valuables. Human error is usually a result of trusting someone without question. It’s the mission of a threat actor, acting as a social engineer, to create an environment of false trust and lies to exploit as many people as possible.

Some of the most common types of social engineering attacks today include:

  • Social media phishing: A threat actor collects detailed information about their target from social media sites. Then, they initiate an attack.
  • Watering hole attack: A threat actor attacks a website frequently visited by a specific group of users.
  • USB baiting: A threat actor strategically leaves a malware USB stick for an employee to find and install, to infect a network.
  • Physical social engineering: A threat actor impersonates an employee, customer, or vendor to obtain unauthorized access to a physical location.
