If you discovered a rash of home burglaries in your neighborhood, you’d find out how they’re getting in, what is being stolen, and work to secure your home. In cybersecurity, criminals are always trying to steal your personal information, passwords, and money.

Phishing and social engineering attacks cost organizations billions of dollars each year, and the attacks are getting worse. As these attacks intensify and become more refined, technology struggles to keep up, and users will continue to fall prey. To effectively defend against this, you have to understand how the attacks work, including the psychological triggers and tricks the attackers are using.

Learning Objectives:
