“Social engineering has definitely gotten picked up more and more; higher profile targets have been attacked via social engineering and I think it\u2019s a big blind spot that a lot of schools and companies don\u2019t think about as much; they are concerned with the technical controls and not with the people controls”<\/strong> – Industry representative<\/em><\/p>\n

“Unless we understand how people are being social engineered it\u2019s very difficult to come up with [effective] technical controls or product offerings”<\/strong> – Industry representative<\/em><\/p>\n

“Social engineering is a part of our everyday lives and we are seeing a huge uptick in misinformation and disinformation\u2026 and we don\u2019t have a grasp on [SE] yet\u2026 and if you don\u2019t understand it, you\u2019re going to get hit by it”<\/strong> – Government representative<\/em><\/p>\n

“The more eyes we can get on this problem, and the more thoughts we can put into this [SE] space, maybe we can produce something [that is meaningful]\u2026 cybersecurity is a shared problem\u2026 when you see how the real world works, you realize\u00a0 it\u2019s all connected. You can either play in your silo and lose the battle or you can open up to new ideas and realize you can\u2019t solve the problem by yourself”<\/strong> – Nonprofit representative<\/em><\/p>\n

“I recognized that hardly anyone is doing [SE]\u2026 it\u2019s rare to be able to exercise and practice this skill ethically\u2026 [it] is hard to teach\u2026 it needs to happen, we need more of it, but really\u2026 being in that type of education environment\u2026 was fun!”<\/strong> – Government representative<\/em><\/p>\n

“We mistake [SE] awareness for actual knowledge and ability, and I don\u2019t think we\u2019re going to get past that until we actually practice the skill [and] until it\u2019s part of our education”<\/strong> – Government representative<\/em><\/p>\n
