Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. The Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET) is used by security professionals and penetration testers to perform advanced attacks and social engineering. The SET offers attack vectors that help carry out human-side penetration testing exercises. In this course, you'll explore the SET and its capabilities and features. You'll also explore SET attack vectors, including phishing, web, infectious media generator, payload and listeners, and mass mailer attacks. Discover where to access installation files and how to install the SET. Learn how to start using the SET by launching the spear phishing module.
