Phishing techniques from the latest ones to the oldest tricks in the book that still work. Even if you have spent a lot of resources on software and hardware based protection, you are still not addressing the human factor. In this technical talk we will look into how hackers can be effective in phishing attacks and see if some very old techniuqes can still be used in modern systems. Topics include spear phishing, making users run executables (well, that souldn’t work in 2020, right?), a look into macro based attacks (most AVs find them, or not?) and the more rarely discussed vishing/smishing (techniques, SIM cards, fake/cloned numbers).
