It examines common social engineering manipulation tactics across email, phone, and in-person interactions.
This course explains how social engineering relies on psychological principles such as authority, urgency, reciprocity, and social proof.

Guidance is provided on verifying identity, handling requests safely, and following organisational security processes.
Social engineering manipulation is presented in realistic organisational contexts to reflect threats faced in everyday work environments.
