Social Engineering is ways to get significant inside information about security like passwords or credit card numbers.
The attackers impose on a little carelessness of humans.
For example, they listen or look such information secretly.
They steal a look at a password behind a person who enter it.
They also look for clues to a password in litter or notes.
It is not enough only to put papers in the shredder because they would manage to fix them.
In addition, they often get information as they pretend to be a user or customer on the phone.
When they want to get credit card information, they tend to pretend a police or the card company.
It is easy to get out the secret if people do not make sure who calls them and the rule to protect secret information are not enough.
