I thought I'd give you a little clue about what we've been preparing...

[Deborah Agianiye Ikongshul @cyberHackWhip]

What if the next phishing email you receive has perfect grammar, relevant context, and sounds exactly like someone you know. That's the reality AI is helping create.

AI is rewriting the rules of social engineering, and most people are still playing by the old ones.

The days when phishing emails were easy to spot through poor grammar are fading fast.

This weekend, I'll be hosting a webinar on:
Social Engineering and Phishing in the Age of AI

[Deborah Agianiye Ikongshul @cyberHackWhip]

We'll discuss:
• What has changed since the rise of AI
• How cybercriminals exploit trust
• Why phishing is becoming more convincing
• Practical ways to stay secure

Free Bonus: The ABCs of Cybersecurity handbook for all attendees.

If you can’t go out for the protest, the least you can do is to repost 😢

Please let's repost and share massively😭

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

Do this and you will stand out 👇🏾

Network intentionally (join communities, attend events, meetup with professionals and like minded people).

Build a home lab.

Document what you have done (not just what you have learnt). Position yourself as a problem solver.

Show practical work. Incident investigations, risk assessments, policy drafts etc.

Create a visible Cybersecurity portfolio (LinkedIn, GitHub, Medium etc)

Learn how to tell your story (especially at interviews). If you are great at giving examples, you are one step closer to getting a job.

To stand out, you have to be intentional and practical 💪

@AskMichaelTaiwo This village is in Obudu LGA of Cross River State. It is called Ubang, but locals call them "New Jerusalem". The dialect has it's male and female version for every known word.

You learn both dialects while growing up, and speak yours'. Meanwhile, Obudu has at least 6 languages.

@ireteeh Happy Anniversary 🥳

2. Since threats often bypass standard defense mechanisms, the breach they cause is usually deeper, more complex, and significantly more expensive to remediate.

[Deborah Agianiye Ikongshul @cyberHackWhip]

Defenders can only prepare for what they understand, while attackers can exploit whatever they discover.

So, unknown threats and here's why they are really dangerous:

[Ahmedkhan @Ahmed___khaan]

In cybersecurity, what’s more dangerous?

A. Known threats

Or

B. Unknown threats

[Deborah Agianiye Ikongshul @cyberHackWhip]

1. Because they don't trigger standard alarms, these threats can remain active in a network for months or years, exfiltrating data or moving laterally while the security team remains unaware that a breach has occurred. As a result, they will have an extended dwell time.

[Deborah Agianiye Ikongshul @cyberHackWhip]

It is a "demand for validation". Why will "Elon Musk" do that? 😂

As usual, these guys don't need everyone to fall for their scams, just a small percentage.

[Deborah Agianiye Ikongshul @cyberHackWhip]

Sadly, he messaged the wrong person.

This DM is a classic example of a social engineering and phishing attack.

I'm going to talk about this from a behavioural security and physchological manipulation perspective.

[Dr Iretioluwa Akerele @ireteeh]

Elon Musk is in my DM. I have made it in life 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Deborah Agianiye Ikongshul @cyberHackWhip]

3. From a high profile figure such as "Elon Musk", he will rarely communicate without an editorial layer of scrutiny. There is a poor observation of punctuation, diction and grammar.

4. The message isn't even a request for collaboration, say an invite for a speaking engagement..
