Profiling Hackers – The Psychology of Cybercrime

Since the Corona crisis, the cloud and remote work have become part of everyday life. Digitization brings opportunities, but also poses risks. Cybercrime is becoming one of the most important threats of this decade. But what kind of people or groups are attacking companies digitally? What motivates hackers? What are the latest Social Engineering techniques, used by Cybercriminals? Psychological manipulation (so-called Social Engineering) is involved in 95% of cyber attacks, – humans are clearly the weakest link. But something can be done about it.

Mark T. Hofmann is a Crime- & Intelligence Analyst, trained and certified in the United States. He is a university lecturer for Behavioral & Cyber Psychology and takes you on a journey into the mind of the perpetrator. He has met and anonymously interviewed hackers, – including individuals whose acts remain undiscovered to this day. Get a rare glimpse into the Psychology of Cybercrime from one of the best-known Profilers. Apart from the technical aspects, he focuses on the human factor and detecting Social Engineering. He informs, inspires, creates awareness and shows, how you can become a human firewall.

Targeting small and medium-sized businesses - Cybercrime: The dark side of digitalization

Accelerated by the coronavirus and rapid digitalization, the phenomenon of Cybercrime continues to grow. In large numbers, medium-sized companies are attacked and blackmailed. This is where the cost-benefit ratio is best from the perpetrators’ point of view. The professionalism of Cybercrime has also increased massively. Cybercrime has created its own supply chains. The Crime-As-a-Service phenomenon in particular is being watched with concern: Criminals (or groups) assemble ready-made “Hacking Tool Kits” and sell or rent them to other Cybercriminals. This reduces the barrier to entry. Even without advanced IT skills, breaches are suddenly possible. A Cyberattack often means a loss of reputation, not just data loss. Customers and partners start to distance themselves and a downward spiral begins, which not all companies can survive. Thinking that your company is too small or irrelevant for cybercriminals ist not professional, it’s naïve. Human error is the main cause of 95% of Cyber Security Breaches. Humans are the weakest link in Cybersecurity. Raising awareness, training and inspiring employees is a good investment.
