E095 – Christopher Hadnagy – Chief human hacker

Play

Hrvatski: Christopher Hadnagy je jedan od pionira socijalnog inženjeringa – skupa metoda i alata koji su razvijeni specifično da potaknu ljude da naprave nešto što inače ne bi, bilo u dobre ili loše svrhe. Specifično, ovo područje je nastalo iz računalne (informatičke) sigurnosti, gdje su rani hakeri kao Christopher iskorištavali nove mogućnosti u komunikaciji elektroničkim sredstvima, te povjerenje i nesnalaženje u istima od strane korisnika, da bi dolazili do inače povjerljivih informacija ili lokacija. Kasnije se ovo područje razvilo u cjel0kupan set usluga i alata koji se u pozitivne svrhe koristi kada korporacije žele testirati koliko su otporne na napade koji uključuju iskorištavenje njihovih djelatnika. Christopher je kreirao prvu zaokruženu edukaciju o ovome, autor je knjiga Social-Engineering: The Art of Human HackingUnmasking the Social Engineer: The Human Element of SecurityPhishing Dark Waters, te Social Engineering: The Science of Human Hacking. S gostom ove epizode je razgovarao Saša dok je polazio upravo opisanu edukaciju u SAD-u.

English: Christopher Hadnagy is one of social engineering pioneers. This is a set of methods and tools developed specifically to induce people into doing an action they otherwise wouldn’t – for better or for worse. Specifically, this field is an offshoot of IT security, where early hackers such as Christopher have exploited new opportunities in electronic communications technologies, the combination of users’ trust and confusion with them, to gain access to confidential information and locations. Social engineering has later been developed into a comprehensive set of services and tools which are being used by the good guys when corporations wish to test their resilience to security attacks which involve exploiting their workforce. Christopher is the creator of the first all-around training course on the subject, and has authored several books: Social-Engineering: The Art of Human HackingUnmasking the Social Engineer: The Human Element of SecurityPhishing Dark Waters, te Social Engineering: The Science of Human Hacking. This interview was conducted by Sascha while attending the Advanced Practical Social Engineering Training course with Christopher in Orlando, Florida.
