Pick one of the following two options: Option 1: Social engineering attacks typically involve some form of psychological manipulation, fooling otherwise unsuspecting users or employees into handing over confidential or sensitive data. Commonly, social engineering involves email or other communication that invokes urgency, fear, or similar emotions in the victim, leading the victim to promptly reveal sensitive information, click a malicious link, or open a malicious file. Because social engineering involves a human element, preventing these attacks can be tricky for enterprises. Describe the most effective example of social engineering you have seen in your personal or professional life. Option 2: Discuss a specific technical or legal challenge when sniffing network traffic during a pentest. Comment on at least one other student post by explaining how you would get around it.
