Drew Amorosi discusses the newly released book Hacking the Human II: Adventures of the Social Engineer with author Ian Mann, senior consultant with ECSC. Mann specializes in security testing via “non-technical means”, focusing on the simple methods one can use to socially engineer people rather than hacking of equipment and network resources. Listen as Mann describes why it is more difficult to secure the human rather than the technology.
The book was exclusively available at Infosecurity Europe, but will be available for the general public in late May.
