Thanks for the advice. That's enough about that
Back on topic.
I'm not surprised these groups exist and I'm expecting this to be more common in the future.
The knowledge is out there and it will just take a few dedicated people to exploit it.
Walls are hard, computers quite soft.
The attack surface is huge. As the article stated gathering information from facebook.
But I would also consider the long con. Someone getting a job at the place or social engineering over months or even years.
If they don't get anywhere they can just move on.
I find this very annoying as there is little I can do to protect the people around me.
I know a few very good social engineers that teach too. They can literately walk in an office building and vanish in the crowd.
Luckily they are the proverbial good guys. The others know no empathy and remorse.
Once in a while I fancy a challenge and try t teach my (technical) colleagues something about security.
Something as simple as "Don't pick up a USB from the street and put it in your laptop".
It's a challenge because it's really tough to convince them of the problem.
