THE INTELLIGENCE YOU DIDN’T KNOW YOU WERE SHARING

Senior executives are prime targets for cybercriminals, social engineers and hostile actors.
Yet today’s attacks rarely begin within corporate systems.
Instead, they start with people.

Attackers systematically analyse the personal digital environments of leadership teams, combining data from social media, historic breaches, AI tools and open-source intelligence to build detailed profiles. What may seem like harmless information, travel patterns, personal interests, professional networks, can be used to map relationships, anticipate behaviour and enable highly targeted attacks, from impersonation to reputational and physical threats.

CxO Academy OSINT for Executives provides senior leaders with a clear and engaging understanding of how this intelligence is gathered and weaponised.

The most effective attacks begin long before they are detected.

WHAT WILL BE COVERED:

This highly engaging half-day workshop is designed to deliver practical insight rather than technical theory.

→ How attackers gather intelligence on executives using open-source intelligence techniques

 →How social media, data breaches and AI tools expose personal information

→ How attackers map relationships between executives, colleagues and family members

→ Real examples of executive impersonation and targeted social engineering attacks

→ How personal digital exposure can translate into corporate security risks

→ Practical steps leaders can take to reduce their personal attack surface
