Social Engineering and its capability for attacks as increased exponentially

Hi All

 

Social Engineering is one of the most effective and dangerous forms of cyber threats faced by organizations today. These attacks manipulate human psychology to bypass traditional security controls, making them particularly difficult to detect and prevent.
Social engineering has emerged as one of the most persistent and damaging cyber threats of the modern era, accounting for over 20% of successful breaches for SMB and 13% for enterprises in 2024-25, according to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR). Unlike conventional cyberattacks that exploit software vulnerabilities, social engineering preys on the human element – leveraging deception, urgency, and trust to manipulate employees into compromising security systems.

 

This paper is a great way to ensure you are aware of the current situation.

 

Quite frightening when you think about it.
