Chis Nickerson and his tiger team of penetration professionals was hired to conduct a penetration test for Jason of Beverly Hills which specializes in customized jewelry for Hollywood personalities. Although they were not able to enter the facility using “break-in” techniques, they were able to walk in through the front door. They use a variety in social engineering tactics to “sweet talk” their way inside. Social engineering is a deceptive way for individuals or groups, primarily using the skill of charm and acceptance, to gain access to confidential resources or information that they would normally not be authorized (Hulme & Goodchild, 2017). It can be done in person, telephone, email, and most any other form of communication.
As part of the tiger team’s social engineering strategy, they were able to get an employee to put there thumb drive in her desktop computer, thus, granting them access to the corporate database via a program running from the thumb drive. While there, no one of the employees there ask them for any credentials to show that they were magazine representatives. It was quite easy for them to roam around the company with no challenges from the employees. The team was able to gather intelligence for their test by taking pictures (with no challenges), wearing a hat cam, and social networking activities with employees. They also used a technique to glean information from the front door HID and used the information. An overall excellent use of social network was displayed in this video and clearly shows that the organization could use some user awareness and training.
