Summary: | In this day and age, social engineering attacks are among the most dangerous dangers. It is now prevalent all across the world. A social engineering attack may result in financial loss, privacy breach, reputational harm, and many other negative outcomes. Thus, a study aimed at evaluating
individuals' understanding and knowledge of social engineering tactics and their ability to protect themselves against such attacks is proposed. The study would summarize the key findings, such as the level of awareness and understanding of social engineering tactics among the population being
studied. It would also suggest recommendations for improving cybersecurity awareness and knowledge based on the findings of the study. The overall goal of the study would be to improve
individuals' ability to recognize and defend against social engineering attacks, thus reducing the risk of security breaches and other cyber threats. |
