Define the scope and boundaries of internal social engineering awareness so that responsibility for it is unambiguous.
Corporate Awareness of Internal Social Engineering Risk
Build a working method for internal social engineering awareness that stands up to scrutiny and survives daily pressure.
Course Overview
The value of preparation for internal social engineering awareness is only visible on the day it is needed. Guard force performance on engineering awareness reflects supervision, not instruction. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting the practice within corporate security practice and under-invest in testing it. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in internal social engineering awareness before they become incidents. The programme suits teams tackling this part of corporate security practice together as readily as individuals attending alone. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of engineering awareness and supervised application. Comparative studies of internal social engineering awareness across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. The programme is built to be used, and every section of engineering awareness it covers ends in something applicable. The final session converts the week's work on the corporate security practice capability into commitments with owners and dates.

Course Modules
Internal social engineering awareness: vulnerability assessment and prioritisation
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Making the investment case for internal social engineering awareness
- Review internal social engineering awareness after every incident, exercise or change in threat.
- Supervise and spot-check performance on engineering awareness rather than relying on reports.
- Protect sensitive information relating to internal social engineering awareness from casual disclosure.
- Identify where judgement in engineering awareness is legitimate and where it is not.
Session 2Supervising the guard force on engineering awareness
- Assess insider risk in roles with privileged access to internal social engineering awareness.
- Record what was learned when engineering awareness did not go as planned.
- Benchmark the organisation's internal social engineering awareness against comparable operations.
- Check guard force instructions for engineering awareness are current and understood.
Engineering awareness: incident response and escalation
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Assessing the threat to engineering awareness specifically, not generically
- Close out actions on internal social engineering awareness rather than leaving them open indefinitely.
- Record the rationale for each significant choice made about engineering awareness.
- Prepare the response for the most likely failure in internal social engineering awareness.
- Rehearse the briefing on engineering awareness that would follow an incident.
Session 2The first fifteen minutes of an incident involving engineering awareness
- Define the trigger that would require internal social engineering awareness to be redesigned.
- Assess contractor and third-party exposure within engineering awareness.
- Map the handovers in internal social engineering awareness between functions and secure them.
- Confirm recorded material from engineering awareness is retained long enough to be useful.
Engineering awareness: threat assessment and intelligence
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Making engineering awareness work when resources are constrained
- Report on internal social engineering awareness in terms that support an investment decision.
- Verify identity checks applied at entry points relevant to engineering awareness.
- Confirm access control on internal social engineering awareness cannot be routinely bypassed.
- Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in engineering awareness.
Session 2Exercising the plan for internal social engineering awareness realistically
- Agree the indicators that will show whether internal social engineering awareness is improving.
- Define the first response actions for an incident involving engineering awareness.
- Exercise the plan for internal social engineering awareness under realistic conditions and record failures.
- Build the threat picture for engineering awareness from sources relevant to this site and sector.
Engineering awareness: surveillance, monitoring and control rooms
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1The paperwork for engineering awareness that is actually needed
- Rank the weaknesses in internal social engineering awareness by consequence rather than by ease of fixing.
- Review surveillance coverage for engineering awareness against likely approach routes.
- Confirm vetting standards applied to staff and contractors in internal social engineering awareness.
- Set escalation criteria and out-of-hours contacts for engineering awareness.
Session 2Building lasting competence in engineering awareness
- Review whether internal social engineering awareness is aligned with the objectives of the protected site.
- Agree what will be standardised in engineering awareness and what will not.
- Assign responsibility for keeping documentation of internal social engineering awareness current.
- Establish the boundary of engineering awareness and record what sits outside it.
