Information is the lifeblood of the social engineer. But there is now so much information available that it can be overwhelming. How can we dial in and narrow your focus in ways that will enhance your social engineering abilities? This course will show you the techniques, tricks, and tips used by the professional social engineering penetration testers of Social-Engineer, LLC. This two-day course is not a laundry list of tools. We will also share the methodology, processes, and our own experiences that allow us to successfully apply information to plan and launch realistic SE scenarios for our clientele. Having the information is only half of what you need.
Lots of tools are nice, but we find that just 3-4 can get the job done 100% of the time. This class is designed with a live practical certification as part of the class that you will get a chance to put your skills to applicable use - live and in person.
During this course you will learn:
- Non-Technical OSINT
- Observational Skills
- Vishing
- Google Hacking
- Maltego
- Social Media Recon
- Practical Certification
