APPLIED SOCIAL ENGINEERING

Applied Social Engineering

· Overview: Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT). Target profiling. Elicitation. Pretexting.

· Homework: Pick an OSINT Tool of your choice. See what you can find about you or a person of interest and how that can be used for a potential social engineering campaign against you/them. Or explore an OSINT VM Trace Labs, Tsurugi. Report the findings (redacted, of course, to preserve the target’s privacy). Write a hypothetical pretexting scenario that explains how you plan to approach the target you just collected OSINT for.
