Understanding Real-World Social Engineering Threats
Social engineering is a growing threat, exploiting human psychology to breach security. Unlike traditional cyber attacks that rely on exploiting technical vulnerabilities, social engineering targets the most unpredictable element of any security system: people.
Join Sean Bell, Sr. Solutions Engineer at Fortra, as we explore:
- How attackers craft convincing and deceptive scenarios to manipulate their targets
- Effective training methods to prepare employees for recognizing and countering these attacks
- Real-world examples showcasing the latest social engineering attacks and their impacts
Gamification for Cyber Security Awareness Training Success
Corporate cybersecurity awareness training is in dire need of revitalization due to employees being overwhelmed with tasks and showing minimal interest in traditional training sessions. Gamification transforms this training into an engaging and relatable experience. By integrating gamified elements with scientifically grounded training methodologies, companies can significantly enhance the effectiveness of their cybersecurity programs.
The inherent human tendency to trust makes individuals vulnerable to cyber threats, with phishing attacks alone costing companies an average of $1.1 million. However, when companies adopt people-centric training, they turn their biggest risk factor into their strongest asset against cyber threats. Gamified training not only makes the learning process more interactive but also emphasizes the real risks of cybersecurity, thereby fostering a proactive and informed organizational culture.

Pendiente 1 Try Cybersecurity Awareness Games
Are your employees truly engaging with your security awareness training? Traditional methods often fall flat, leading to unsafe behaviors and low knowledge retention.
Gamified training can change that. By making the learning process interactive, you can increase engagement by 60%, reduce risky behaviors, and enhance knowledge retention.
Transform your security training into an exciting experience and build a workforce that is better prepared to recognize and respond to security threats.
How Attackers Steal Credentials to Gain Stealthy Access to Your Organization
You’ve no doubt heard the phrase, “Attackers don’t hack anyone these days. They log on.” By obtaining (or stealing) valid user account details, an attacker can gain access to a system, remain hidden, and then elevate their privileges to “log in” to more areas of the network. To illustrate ways in which security practitioners can help defend against the techniques employed in credential stealing attacks, this webinar will break down an identity attack piece by piece.
Forrester Total Economic Impact of Cisco Duo Case Study
Cisco Secure Access by Duo uses a multi-layered approach to secure access to applications in the cloud or on-premises with multifactor authentication, single sign-on, and device posture checks. To better understand the true cost and value of integrating Duo, Cisco commissioned a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study from Forrester Consulting. The study found that a composite organization comprised of real-world Duo customers realized a net present value (NPV) of $3.23 million over three years and a return on investment (ROI) of 159%. But Duo’s benefits extend beyond financial gains. Forrester’s study concluded that implementing Duo led to time savings for end users, help desk staff, security analysts, and IT staff, while reducing the risk of credentials-related security. For a complete look at Duo's value to a business, get the key financial data points in The TEI of Cisco Duo study.
