World Class Investigator Podcast w/ Jenny Radcliffe
Date: February 19 2018
Source: World Class Investigator
“Jenny Radcliffe – aka “The People Hacker” – is a force to be reckoned with. She can diffuse a crisis situation, talk her way into a secure building and spot a psychopath at a hundred paces. She has been called a mind reader and a ‘human lie detector’, and likened to a Jedi Knight. In reality, she is an expert in Social Engineering (the human element of security), negotiations, non-verbal communication, and deception, using her skills to help clients from corporations and law enforcement, to poker players, politicians and the security industry protect themselves from malicious social engineering attacks.”

“The tumour would kill him, of that much the doctors were certain. Its hungry tentacles burrowing into parts of his old and clever brain that a surgeons knife could never reach. Now, explained the young doctor, it was really just a question of quality of life over the coming and final few months, of managing pain, prolonging mobility, making the old man as comfortable as possible in his last moments. The elderly Chinese man listened carefully, as his son translated the doctor’s words.”

“The great virtue of the general purpose computer, particularly the networked computer, is its flexibility, but this is also its greatest flaw. To call computers ‘broken by design’ is only a slight exaggeration, and the development in the consumer space of locked-down devices, such as Apple’s iOS phones and tablets, shows precisely where the problem lies: users.”

Jenny Radcliffe as guest editor for Infosecurity Magazine on Twitter
Date: December 11 2017
Source: Twitter
Jenny Radcliffe recently served as a guest editor for Infosecurity Magazine on Twitter at their page @InfosecurityMag.
The publication has utilised the expertise and guidance of several key figures within infosec all week long on its Twitter page, and the experiment began with our own Jenny!
Jenny took questions from followers about their experiences and concerns with social engineering, including examples of previous security threats and how people can take extra caution to avoid such problems as we head into the Christmas season. There was also a light-hearted approach to Jenny’s time in front of the keyboard; for instance, Jenny gave her opinion on whether Die Hard really is a Christmas film or not!

How social engineers fool your firm – and how to stop them
Date: November 13 2017
Source: Illuminate
Social engineering is not about the hackers and cyber-criminals you see in the headlines. Social engineering is the human element of security, and is also defined as the psychological manipulation of people into carrying out actions or divulging confidential information.
Kevin Mitnick, one of the world’s most well-known and notorious social engineers, stated there’s “no patch for stupidity” when it comes to social engineering attacks. Industry professionals realise the best-laid plans and most sophisticated systems can be greatly damaged by just one person’s careless or malicious actions.
As an ethical social engineer, I understand how to manipulate and fool, to persuade and cajole, to influence and convince. I do this in order to demonstrate weakness, replicate malicious attackers and help companies patch up vulnerabilities. I have observed first-hand how easily people can be led to talk too much, become too trustworthy and thus ‘open the company kimono’ to attackers of all backgrounds for a variety of different reasons.

“Well, after a week of countless radio interviews, photo and video shoots, my week on the road with the Barclays Embarrassing Fraud Clinic is over. We travelled from London to Manchester to Glasgow and back again and I heard so many stories from victims of crime, learned about new fraud techniques and hopefully helped a lot of people with their feelings of guilt, fear and shame around their victimisation. A fantastic experience working with the lovely Jenny Radcliffe and some of the Barclays Digital Eagles. Let’s keep talking openly about frauds and scams…it’s how we empower ourselves and law enforcement to beat these criminals.”

Just like watching the heist shows I love, but with the added bonus of it being justified for work!
