In this course, I’ll teach you a special part of social engineering – unlocking people's secrets. Making people voluntary share their secrets, to be precise. And this is the only way to learn how to keep your secrets safe.

This course is unique. Because unlike many courses on Social Engineering existing on the market, it’s not about technical tools and software.
