This is the last week in our coverage on Social Engineering -- or the use of deception to manipulate human behavior.

In this episode, Kevin introduces you to a couple more tactics that the bad guys use to try and bypass your PHYSICAL security controls--"The IT Guy Attack" and “The Cable Guy Attack."  Both involve someone pretending to be a tech to gain access to highly controlled spaces and once they're in, they can usually go through a facility unnoticed.

How can you and your employees defend against these attacks? Listen to find out!
