Social Engineering for Absolute Beginners

[eivan]

This course will teach you the most common social engineering threats. At the end of the course you will understand why people are the weakest link in your organisations security posture. You will understand:

1) what the most common social engineering threats and are,
2) the impact per threat for your business,
3) how these threats can be executed and / or mitigated.

You will able to understand the above-mentioned points without having to understand technical stuff (e.g. source code) within ONE HOUR!

How is that possible?
Social engineering is closely related to psychology. Social engineering can be defined as the art of manipulating people in order to achieve a goal. Therefore, this course is created for managers rather than developers. Managers must train their employees to strengthen their personal firewall (i.e. being less likely to fall victim to manipulation), because collectively all employees make up your organisation's firewall!

So, after following this course am I a full-fledged security expert?
No. This course will teach you the most common social engineering threats so that you can critically question and discuss the impact of these security issues with your employees and management.

What!?! Why should I enroll?
Only enroll when you want to strengthen your personal firewall, are new social engineering and want a complete beginners’ perspective. This course is specifically developed for:

- (Project) managers that lead in an organisation that depends on IT and have no clue how social engineering could harm their organisation;
- Security managers tasked to deliver basic security awareness training;
- Anyone interested in the basics of social engineering, explained in layman’s terms

Ok, but there is already a lot of information on available on the web. So, what’s in it for me?
I thought you would never ask! This course differentiate itself from existing available information because:

- this course is not solely based on my opinion, but substantiated with scientific evidence. This means you not only get my opinion and experience but it is also backed by science;
- I've included lots of links to websites that provide comprehensive background information, should you be interested in more detail;
- That's not it, there is more
