The root cause of untold cyber attacks is the age-old technique of social engineering. KnowBe4 Security Awareness Advocate James McQuiggan joins the episode to lend his expert analysis and insight. We discuss the concepts of social engineering and how cybercriminals use it to manipulate people.
October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month. One of the themes is Fight the Phish. Social engineering plays into why people fall for phishing emails. The message is “Think before you click on any suspicious emails, links or attachments and make sure to report any suspicious emails if you can!”

Securing Active Directory
Nearly every computer that runs Windows has Active Directory (AD). This structure helps organizations manage user identities, privileges, and much more. The power that AD has means threat actors are often targeting it to execute attacks.
Our guest for the episode is Christopher Keller, who is Senior Security Engineer at Tenable. We cover the common mistakes admins make with AD, how hackers take advantage, and what companies can do to improve.
