This is as this is usually charged as a normal criminal offence such as: Extortion Fraud Misrepresentation Etc There is plenty of data, just do not limit it to "social engineering" as a court and most of the legal system will not call it this Craig -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of xun dong Sent: Wednesday, 11 October 2006 8:32 PM To: pen-test () securityfocus com; security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: Social Engineering Data set Hello list; I am currently doing research on Social Engineering Attacks. Unlike the technical hack, I found that there is few useful and well documented SE attack examples on the Internet. So I decided to create a data set for SE attacks, and I am willing to publish it for free on the Internet. However, I think only my own experience would not be able to make this dataset as comprehensive as possible. So I would like to ask for help on this list. If you think you have SE attack examples, you can email me. Of course for confidential reason you should not use the real name in your example. If you don't mind I will also publish your name along with the example you provided. Thanks a lot in advance. I hope this could be a step forwards in protecting against SE attacks. -- Xun Dong Research Associate Department of Computer Science University of York ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- This list is sponsored by: Norwich University EARN A MASTER OF SCIENCE IN INFORMATION ASSURANCE - ONLINE The NSA has designated Norwich University a center of Academic Excellence in Information Security.
