Levers of Human Deception: The Science and Methodology Behind Social Engineering

Tuesday May 25 | 11:00 AM AEST

No matter how much security technology we purchase, we still face a fundamental security problem: people. This webinar will explore the different levers that social engineers and scam artists pull to make us more likely to do their bidding.

Join Jacqueline Jayne (JJ), KnowBe4’s Security Awareness Advocate as she shares her insights and examples of mental manipulation in everyday life: from the tactics used by tricky advertisers to sophisticated social engineering and online scams.

Her insights on the human condition and how to engage at all levels in this space are invaluable as many people struggle to understand the cyberthreat landscape and equally, tech people struggle to understand how to engage the people to create change. Humans are innately curious which in this climate causes major issues. Additionally, we’ll look at how to ethically use the very same levers when educating your users.

JJ is not your usual presenter and you will enjoy her energy and ability to create links between people and technology.
