Kevin Mitnick used social engineering to completely rewrite the rules of cybersecurity. Here's what MSPs can take from his playbook. ⬇️ For decades, he relied on human psychology—𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘩𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘴—to bypass even the most advanced security systems. How does “social engineering” target MSPs today? 👉 𝗙𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗧𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀: Attackers act as clients and request immediate system access. 👉 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀: Fraudulent "fix it now" requests lead employees to skip verification. 👉 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗨𝘀𝗲: They exploit stolen credentials to pretend to be actual customers. The lesson is clear: Technology alone won’t stop manipulation—early detection is important. 👉 Contact us https://t2m.io/BmONkE3J for a tailored plan to protect your clients from social engineering threats. #cybersec #withrotate #infosec #SME #SMB #MSSP #MSP
