social engineering
(foldoc) | social engineering
A term used among crackers and samurai
for cracking techniques that rely on weaknesses in wetware
rather than software; the aim is to trick people into
revealing passwords or other information that compromises a
target system's security. Classic scams include phoning up a
mark who has the required information and posing as a field
service tech or a fellow employee with an urgent access
problem. See also the tiger team story in the patch
entry.
