No matter how sophisticated your security equipment and procedures may be, their most, easily exploitable aspect is, and has always been, the human infrastructure. The skilled malicious social engineer is a weapon, nearly impossible to defend against.
This book covers, in detail, the world's first framework for social engineering. It defines, explains, and dissects each principle, then illustrates it with true stories and case studies from masters such as Kevin Mitnick, renowned author of The Art of Deception. You will discover just what it takes to excel as a social engineer. Then you will know your enemy.
