Socjotechnika. Sztuka zdobywania władzy nad umysłami. Wydanie II

Christopher Hadnagy

Nowa książka Chrisa Hadnagy'ego, Socjotechnika. Sztuka zdobywania władzy nad umysłami jest doskonałą lekturą dla każdego, kto jest choć trochę zainteresowany kwestią inżynierii społecznej. Opisane w niej działania, od zdobywania informacji po wykonanie planu, umożliwiają infiltrację dowolnego celu. Kevin Mitnick, autor, prelegent i konsultant Wykorzystaj najlepsze techniki hackerskie, aby lepiej bronić się przed atakami. W sieci zabezpieczeń, które stworzyliśmy dla ochrony naszych danych, najsłabszym elementem jest zawsze czynnik ludzki. Hackerzy, zarówno etyczni, jak i nie, korzystają z wachlarza sztuczek opierających na "hackowaniu osobistym" i pozwalających przekonać innych do ujawnienia haseł, przekazania wrażliwych plików, przelania znacznych sum pieniędzy i świadomego podjęcia działań, które zdecydowanie nie są w najlepszym interesie osób, które wykonują te czynności. Książka Socjotechnika. Sztuka zdobywania władzy nad umysłami opisuje te sztuczki, aby umożliwić specjalistom zajmującym się bezpieczeństwem danych wykorzystanie tych umiejętności w celu odkrycia i wyeliminowania słabości zabezpieczeń. Niniejsza pozycja zarówno przedstawia techniki takie, jak modelowanie komunikacji, mentalność plemienna, obserwacja bądź manipulacja, jak i prezentuje wskazówki umożliwiające rozpoznanie, zwalczanie i zapobieganie atakom wykorzystującym inżynierię społeczną. Drugie, rozszerzone wydanie prezentuje różne techniki inżynierii społecznej, od klasycznych po najnowocześniejsze, przedstawiając je w kontekście zdarzeń znanych z pierwszych stron gazet, jak z własnych doświadczeń autora. Szczegółowe omówienie technik, takich jak wzbudzanie emocji, tworzenie pretekstu, biały wywiad, tailgating bądź phishing pozwala zrozumieć, jak łatwo jest skłonić ludzi do podjęcia szkodliwych decyzji. "W późnych latach 70. zacząłem korzystać z inżynierii społecznej, aby jeździć autobusem za darmo jako nastolatek, przechwytywać połączenia NSA w liceum i łamać dowolne zabezpieczenia w wieku studenckim. Wszystko to robiłem wyłącznie z ciekawości, chęci sprawdzenia się i żądzy przygód. Dziś, po kilku dekadach, wciąż twierdze, że inżynieria społeczna jest najważniejszą metodą każdego testu penetracji. Nie tylko ja zresztą. Agenci rządowi, hackerzy kryminalni i hacktywiści korzystają z takiej taktyki, aby kraść pieniędze, zdobywać dane a czasami nawet wpływać na wyniki wyborów w państwie."
