Week 09 Posting - Fun with Social Engineering

 This was such an interesting topic to research, and there are things I noticed that were related to the topic but had no place in being part of the written discussion, so I am choosing to expand further upon it here in the blog. I noticed when watching videos about people blending into the environment that almost all of the actions and roles that people do by either doing surveillance, pretending to be someone else that requires entry like a repair man or a delivery driver, all the way to acting as if you're someone significant that was scheduled to have a meeting with the boss of the company, and my time is very valuable, so you better make sure I am on that list, and I am not, then someone messed up on your end. 

I hope that long-winded sentence made sense. Either way, it reminds me of everything that gets done in the Ocean 11 franchise. Social engineering and manipulating your way up to the "treasure" room is all the stuff covered and pulled off in the films. I just found it fascinating, making learning about this even more enjoyable. I love this reality of the world, which was beautifully played off in the movie.
