Information security must provide protection to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information.

This chapter will seek to analyze the role of social engineering in information security breaches and the factors that contribute to its success. A variety of social engineering attacks, impacts, and mitigations will be discussed. Human factors such as trust, obedience, and fear are easily exploited, thereby allowing social engineers to execute successful attacks. However, with effective countermeasures such as information security awareness training, education, and audit procedures, the impacts of social engineering can be decreased or eliminated altogether Computer networks--Security measures 658.478 Repository Universitas Langlangbuana Sistem Repository Elektronik Skripsi, Tesis, Desertasi dan Penelitian Dosen Universitas Langlangbuana 658.478 FIE h B115 My Library 658.478 FIE h Handbook of research on information and cyber security in the fourth industrial revolution cover_Information_and_cyber.PNG.PNG 1044 2022-09-09 10:28:37 2022-09-09 10:28:57 machine generated
