You do not need to have a gun or muscle gang to rob a bank! You tongue is enough!
This talk is 50% real audio from a social engineering engagement and 50% lessons learned from the call. During this call, Joshua talks a bank VP into giving up full access to his computer and eventually facilities. At one point during the call, the antivirus even triggers. This is an intense call with a ton of valuable lessons for any social engineer or defender looking to enhance tradecraft or better detect social engineering attacks.
In this talk we will go through:
- Importance of recon and how it can help in social engineering.
- How to spot the pretext.
- How to create a good pretext.
- Playing to selfish interests of the target.
- What to do when things go wrong – (During the call an antivirus triggers – very intense moment).
- The importance of never breaking cover.
