Social Engineering is also known as People Hacking. It focuses on the weakest link of the computer
security chain - People.
It is often said that the only secure computer is an unplugged one. The fact that you could persuade
someone to plug it in and switch it on means that even powered down computers are vulnerable.
It is the only security weakness that is universal, independent of platform, software, network or
age of equipment.
For a variety of reasons this is the easiest place in which a hacker can gain vital information
about your network and so the main way to counteract this is to make everyone aware of their
responsibility in the defence of your networks and data in the same way they will close windows
and lock doors in the physical environment.
VPNet provide Security Training to our customers in order for their users to know the relevance
of their impact on the overall data security of the organisation.
This is usually in association with the writing and implementation of an
