Description

Readers learn how to leverage human psychology and publicly available information to attack a target. The book includes sections on how to evade detection, spear phish, generate reports, and protect victims to ensure their well-being. Readers learn how to collect information about a target and how to exploit that information to make their attacks more effective. They also learn how to defend themselves or their workplace against social engineering attacks.

An ethical introduction to social engineering; an attack technique that leverages psychology, deception, and publicly available information to breach the defenses of a human target in order to gain access to an asset. Social engineering is key to the effectiveness of any computer security professional.

Reviews
"Gray provides a very accessible look at social engineering that should be essential reading for pentesters and ethical hackers." -Ian Barker, BetaNews "I really liked the way that [Joe] lays out tools to use, including walking through where to download them from and install them . . . as beginner-friendly and as easy to use as possible." -Patrick Laverty, Layer 8 Podcast
