Session Title: Tactics of Deception: Social Engineering Methods Financial Criminals Use (and How to Stop Them)

Speakers: Alethe Denis, Senior Security Consultant - Red Team

Abstract: Social engineers are weaponizing psychology, technology, and trust to commit financial crimes faster and at greater scale than ever before. This session reveals the real-world tactics used by attackers — from vishing and deepfake impersonations to credential harvesting and insider recruitment — and why traditional fraud prevention often fails to catch them.

Drawing from case studies and red team engagements, attendees will learn how to recognize social engineering patterns earlier, strengthen human defenses, and adapt investigation techniques to this growing threat. Equip yourself with the tools to outsmart the criminals who see people, not systems, as the easiest way to steal.
