Going After the Big Phish

A while ago I did a presentation for one of the CTG events on Executive Security and Close Protection Technology. It was good to be able to go in with a slightly different take on things, as I was approaching it as a basic awareness of how people carry out whaling and phishing, trying to target senior executives, and what awareness an exec security team might want or need to have to protect their principal from this sort of decidedly non-physical attack.

For various reasons I hadn’t got around to making this one available until recently, after having heard James Linton, the man who phished the White House as a prank, speak. It prodded my memory and so, in case it’s useful to anyone, here’s the presentation.
