Persuasion in Practice: Social Engineering Workshop
Helma de Boer, Rosanne Pouw

What technique do cyber criminals use to persuade people to click a link, download malware or bypass procedures? In this workshop we explore Cialdini's seven ways to influence other people’s behavior and decision making, and how cyber criminals use them to their advantage.

Participants are divided into two groups, each receiving their own mission. They have 10 minutes to prepare their strategy. Can they social engineer the other person to get to their goal?

Computers or other digital tools are not necessary for this workshop!
