Social engineering: threat or secret weapon? 

Alethe Denis, social engineer and Senior Consultant at Critical Insight, was awarded a Black Badge at DEF CON 27, the world’s largest hacking conference. She joins the podcast to chat about psychology, trust and human biases, what a successful social engineering campaign looks like, and why she thinks women (generally) make better social engineers.  

“As a survival mechanism, humans desire to believe what they’re hearing is true because it makes their lives easier.”
