While similar to a confidence trick or simple fraud, the term typically applies to trickery or deception for the purpose of information gathering, fraud, or computer system access; in most cases the attacker never comes face-to-face with the victim. Social engineering techniques and terms All social engineering techniques are based on specific attributes of human decision-making known as cognitive biases.[1] These biases, sometimes called "bugs in the human hardware," are exploited in various combinations to create attack techniques, some of which are listed here: Pretexting Pretexting is the act of creating and using an invented scenario (the pretext) to persuade a targeted victim to release information or perform an action and is typically done over the telephone. It is more than a simple lie as it most often involves some prior research or set up and the use of pieces of known information (e.g. for impersonation: date of birth, Social Security Number, last bill amount) to establish legitimacy in the mind of the target.

Social Engineering Social Engineering uses influence and persuasion to deceive people by convincing them that the social engineer is someone he is not, or by manipulation. As a result, the social engineer is able to take advantage of people to obtain information with or without the use of technology.

  • Building Management System (In) Security
    BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (IN) SECURITY HVAC building management systems are not immune from the need for computer security and defensive computing. A Visible Example In 2010, a computer virus dubbed Stuxnet was used to attack nuclear enrichment centrifuges at Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility. Widely speculated to be a joint project of the US and Israeli intelligence services, the virus spread worldwide but was designed to only target specific process controllers used to control centrifuges at Iran’s nuclear facility. The process controllers had a simple (and previously known) security vulnerability that allowed them to be reprogrammed by the virus to behave differently than intended–without anyone knowing. The ultimate effect was that a portion of the centrifuges were physically spun out of control causing irreparable damage. The estimated impact of this attack on Iran’s nuclear program varies widely, but some reports state that the damage may have set back progress by up to 18 months. One amazing part of this story is that the equipment was not simply connected to the internet and targeted remotely–the servers were “air-gapped” for security against these exact kinds of threats. Instead, the virus was designed to piggyback on a USB thumb drive from a computer connected to the internet, to one of the secure control servers. English: Symbolic image depicting the computer virus Stuxnet (Photo credit: Wikipedia) The HVAC Connection What does this have to do with HVAC and Energy Efficiency, you may ask? Well, the control systems we use to automate control of commercial buildings (aka BMS or DDC systems) are functionally equivalent (though HVAC-application-specific) versions of these industrial process control systems.

Although, at times, flash drive resident software can run by itself (think U3 flash drives) without any action on the part of the computer user (other than inserting the USB flash drive) the more normal case is that a person has to be tricked. My first posting on this topic has a sample autorun.inf file that safely illustrates three of these tricks, and you can download this file to test how well your PC is defended from inadvertently running software off the flash drive.

  • NYS Senate Public Hearing Cyber Security
    NYS Senate Public Hearing Cyber Security: Defending New York from Cyber Attacks Testimony of Benjamin M. Lawsky, Superintendent of Financial Services The Griffiss Institute, Rome, New York November 18, 2013 My name is Benjamin M. Lawskyand I am Superintendent of Financial Services. I also serve as Co-Chair of Governor Cuomo's Cyber Advisory Board. I appreciate the opportunity to present testimony today and thank Senator Griffo and the members of the committee for inviting me and for shining a light on an issue that we all need to focus on to ensure the security of our state and nation. I also want to thank the Chairs of the other committees represented here today, Senators Ball, Gallivan, Golden, Seward and Valesky. Cyber security is a critical issue for all of us as public officials and particularly by virtue of New York's status in the world. New York City is a global and national center of finance and commerce. We are the home of Wall Street and hundreds of corporations with interests in banking, insurance, securities and countless other sectors of the economy. Obviously, New York presents tempting targets for cyber criminals intent on disrupting or even destroying our institutions, or stealing the confidential information of those institutions and their customers. Major New York City-based institutions have already been targeted. Within the past year, the web sites of American Express, JPMorgan Chase, The New York Times, and Citigroup were disrupted in well-publicized cyber-attacks. Today, I will discuss the Cyber Advisory Board appointed by Governor Cuomo last May and the work of the Department of Financial Services (DFS) related to strengthening cyber security in New York's financial services community.

    The biggest security event of the year - I'm talking, of course, about the RSA Conference that was held in San Francisco in February - has been an outstanding success that we have witnessed first-hand. The information and computer security market is alive and doing great, and it was a pleasure - as always - to see old friends and meet new ones which, until then, were mostly catalogued in our minds as a collection of Twitter avatars. To make things even more interesting, we got an invite from the producers of the Dr. Phil show to talk about identity theft. We're located in Europe so it wasn't doable, but I bet it would have been quite the experience.
