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

Thursday, November 11 | 2:00 PM GMT +8

 

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. Additionally, we’ll look at how to ethically use the very same levers when educating your users.

Key Takeaways

  • The Perception Vs. Reality Dilemma
  • Understanding the OODA (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) Loop
  • How social engineers and scam artists achieve their goals by subverting — OODA Loop’s different components
  • How we can defend ourselves and our organizations

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. 

With over 20 years’ experience as a conduit between people and technology, she has mastered the art of communication and influence.  Previously, she led a successful cybersecurity education and awareness program that changed behaviour and culture, aimed at helping users make better cybersecurity decisions.
