Social Engineering: Protecting Employees

Your employees may be your greatest asset—or your greatest liability. Social engineers are saavy and will choose attack the most vulnerable employees with pretext calls and phishing emails. This is why security awareness needs to start at the top, with managers and executives who understand the threat of social engineering and address that threat with clear security awareness policies and procedures.
