The Deception Masterclass: Making dark psychology work for red and blue teams

About this talk

After years of phishing and physical social engineering engagements (plus a career in law enforcement spent being lied to professionally), I’ve learned that deception rarely beats our logic. The Deception Masterclass looks at the psychology behind why smart, skeptical people still hold the door, click the link, and read out the MFA code, and why most of us are far worse at spotting lies than we think. Building on research from behavioral science and real-world tradecraft, this talk teaches defenders how to recognize and resist manipulation and teaches red teamers how to weaponize it.
