I should start this blog post by telling you what Simca P Umetrics is short for. It's a social engineering tool that allows anyone to view basic information about their Facebook followers, such as age, sex, location, relationship status and posts in the past week. The tool also allows users to search for individual users or lists of potential targets. Personally I don't use it often but it was still interesting to see how many people were using this type of service on Facebook which shows how easy these types of services are becoming. If you want to learn more about Simca P Umetrics you can check out their website at http://www.simcapumetrics. com/Throughout the past 6 years, I have read many interesting blog posts and white papers on various subjects. Most of these are about how hackers try to exploit the company's I.T. systems, but what about their users? What has happened to the people that were blindly clicking on emails with malicious attachments or downloading Word files shared with them on Facebook? That is where hacker blogs come into play. There are thousands of blogs out there that focus on all types of infosec topics but they are not always very informative or educational in nature. They will usually provide users with information on how to exploit vulnerabilities in software, but never show any trustworthiness in regards to spreading online scams through social engineering techniques. Hacking-Blog.com is a totally different story and I try to make it a point to read one of these blogs every week or so to get current information on social engineering tactics. What about the companies that make all this software? I know you remember when Microsoft was supposedly scanning your emails for viruses, but did they ever scan their users' Facebook accounts? If they did, there is no record of it because Microsoft usually doesn't share their customer's personal information. But what about the other software makers out there? Did they ever consider scanning their customers' Facebook accounts in order to find bugs or security holes in their software? Not likely. So where does that leave the consumer? It leaves them vulnerable to scams and social engineering attacks, which can be scary. I know this topic is a bit out of the scope of what I usually talk about, but this is something that has been on my mind for a long time and I was finally inspired to write a blog post about it after reading another article on password security. They write:"All of this advice would be great if we lived in a world made up entirely of ethical folks who always followed rules and never abused trust. Instead we live in a world where people will use any information they can find to scam, defraud or otherwise cheat others. Any time someone can trick you into giving up private information or trick you into installing malware on your computer, they will do so. That's just the way it is." That's exactly why I decided to write this blog post because I'm tired of companies creating software that doesn't take into consideration the big picture of online security. This world is nothing like it was 20 years ago when only hackers were exploiting computers and no one had heard of social engineering attacks on Facebook. It's important for companies to stop worrying about their profits and start worrying about their customer's safety as well as the company's overall image as well as its customers'. cfa1e77820
