What you'll learn

Social engineering is the use of deception to manipulate individuals into revealing confidential or personal information that may be used for fraudulent purposes

Amendment 42-24 Authorized for use 1 January 2025 / Mandatory 1 January 2026

Description

If you got an urgent email from your boss asking for your company's latest financial reports, what would you do? Cybercriminals can pretend to be your coworkers, using only public information, sending you emails and asking for things; if you're not careful, you might not catch the difference. This is called "social engineering," and it can have major consequences.
