    About this ebook

    QuickRead presents a summary of "Social Engineering" by Christopher Hadnagy:

     

    Discover the art of human hacking and how to protect yourself from attacks on your personal information.

     

    Con artists and thieves surround us every day, they steal personal belongings like our wallets, cell phones, and valuable jewelry. But the most malicious thief is that of a social engineer who is after something far more valuable - your personal information. A social engineer doesn't simply hack your computer, instead, a social engineer will gain your trust and manipulate you into revealing the information needed to hack your bank accounts, company software, and more. A simple phone call or conversation can reveal all a social engineer needs to know to hack your passwords and steal your identity or the identities of thousands. In Social Engineering, you'll learn invaluable insight into the methods used to break seemingly secure systems and expose the threats that exist from a professional social engineer who uses his skills for good. You'll learn how all information is valuable to an attacker, the tactics social engineers will employ to con their victims, and lastly, how to protect yourself from malicious social engineers.
