Webroot.Com/Safe - An attacker can use social interaction (social skills), to gain or compromise information about a company or its computer systems. The attacker might appear unassuming and professional, perhaps claiming to be a new employee or repair person, or even a researcher, and even providing credentials to prove that identity. Asking questions can help an attacker gather enough information to penetrate an organization's network. An attacker may be unable to obtain enough information from one source. In this case, he/she might contact another source within the organization to increase his/her credibility.
