“Let’s talk about how human nature plays into cybercrime. Criminals have learned they can exploit typical human feelings, such as curiosity and the desire to please, to steal credentials and infiltrate your network. Let’s dig into some of the messaging that elicits these emotions.
Fear: “If you don’t give me the information, I will report you to your manager.”
Trust: “Your bank account has just been closed. Click here to reactivate.”
