The following methods can be helpful to eliminate social engineering threat.
Password policies
Vulnerability assessments
Data classification
Password policy should specify that how the password can be shared.
Company should implement periodic penetration and vulnerability assessments. These assessments
usually consist of using known hacker tools and common hacker techniques to breach a network
security. Social engineering should also be used for an accurate assessment.
Since social engineers use the knowledge of others to attain information, it is essential to have a
data classification model in place that all employees know and follow. Data classification assigns

level of sensitivity of company information. Each classification level specifies that who can view and
edit data, and how it can be shared.
