Explanation:
Tailgating is the term used for someone being so close to you when you enter a building that they
are able to come in right behind you without needing to use a key, a card, or any other security
device. Many social engineering intruders needing physical access to a site will use this method of
gaining entry. Educate users to beware of this and other social engineering ploys and prevent
them from happening.
