Social engineering has several meanings: * Social engineering (political science) * Social engineering (computer security)
Are the examples provided really social engineering? Dumpster diving is just another way of exploiting human weakness, but there aren't really any social aspects to it. Similarly the malicious attachment example has some aspects of social engineering as the cracker has to get the user to implicitly trust them and execute the attachmet, but for a self-propagating virus, it's not as clear. -------------------------- ...Infosecurity survey 90% of office workers gave away their password in exchange for a cheap pen. Is that a correct falue, I mean did they check if i was the right password or just some bogus people made up. Does anyone have any information about social engineering as it was used in 1950s adverts of General Electrics?
