This podcast sheds light on the often underestimated risk of insider threats within organizations. It illustrates how factors like early disengagement, frustration, or personal crises (e.g., financial troubles or addiction) can quietly evolve into significant security risks. Even formerly loyal employees can become unnoticed risk factors when personal circumstances change. Technical solutions alone are not the primary focus here; rather, understanding human dynamics and fostering a culture of attentive leadership are crucial. By identifying behavioral changes early and providing targeted support, managers and security officers can take preventive action. The podcast also addresses how companies should respond if damage has already occurred—and how previously overlooked warning signs come into play. Finally, it underscores the importance of integrating psychosocial risks firmly into an organization’s security strategy.

How do we deal with cyberbullying, fake news, and digital overwhelm? This podcast – inspired by the book "Emma and the Virtual Turning Point" – offers guidance in navigating the digital world. Together with young people, experts, and educators, we explore digital ethics, media literacy, augmented reality, and protection against disinformation.

For everyone who wants to not just use digital spaces – but shape them.

Welcome to In the Shadow’s Grip – the podcast about deception, manipulation, and control.
Today’s topic: Social Engineering – the art of manipulating people to extract information.

A simple example:
Someone calls pretending to be from your IT department. They sound confident and trustworthy. Ten minutes later, they have your password.
No hack. No code. Just psychology.

Social engineering exploits human behavior:

• Helpfulness

• Trust

• Urgency

The most common methods:
Phishing – fake but convincing emails
Vishing – pressure over the phone
Pretexting – fabricated identities and scenarios

The scary part? It works. Again and again.

What helps?

• Train your skepticism

• Establish clear security processes

• Raise awareness through training

Because: Security starts in the mind.

In the next episode, we’ll dive into real-world attacks – and how easily anyone can become a target.

Stay alert. Knowledge protects.

In a world where digitalization and data growth are accelerating, traditional security strategies are no longer enough.This podcast explores how Business Intelligence (BI), Data Science, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are redefining security management.

Imagine being able to see the impact of your words or having an app that verifies whether a news story is real or fake. That’s exactly what Emma, Leo, and Mia have made possible. In "Virtual Heroes," we explore the inspiring story of three students who use Augmented and Virtual Reality to fight cyberbullying and misinformation.

Their groundbreaking projects – from an AR app that visualizes the power of words to a VR experience that brings the realities of cyberbullying to life – demonstrate how technology can make the world a better place. Their mission? To champion digital ethics and education. Their journey has led to the creation of an international conference and a global community dedicated to making the digital space more humane and responsible.

Join us on this captivating journey of courage, creativity, and the responsible use of technology. "Virtual Heroes" is more than a podcast – it’s a call to action to shape the digital future together.

In this episode, we take an in-depth look at social engineering techniques, based on the guidelines of the BSI Basic Protection Compendium and the ICS Security Compendium. We discuss how attackers deliberately exploit human vulnerabilities to gain access to sensitive information and systems. Additionally, we provide practical measures that organizations and employees can implement to effectively protect themselves against these threats.
