...------------------------------------------------- Techniques and terms[edit] All social engineering techniques are based on specific attributes of human decision-making known as cognitive biases.[3] These biases, sometimes called "bugs in the human hardware," are exploited in various combinations to create attack techniques, some of which are listed here: Pretexting[edit] Pretexting (adj. pretextual), also known in the UK as blagging or bohoing, is the act of creating and using an invented scenario (the pretext) to engage a targeted victim in a manner that increases the chance the victim will divulge information or perform actions that would be unlikely in ordinary circumstances.[4] An elaborate lie, it most often involves some prior research or setup and the use of this information for impersonation (e.g., date of birth, Social Security number, last bill amount) to establish legitimacy in the mind of the target.[5] This technique can be used to fool a business into disclosing customer information as well as by private investigators to obtain telephone records, utility records, banking records and other information directly from company service representatives. The information can then be used to establish even greater legitimacy under tougher questioning with a manager, e.g., to make account changes, get specific balances, etc. Pretexting can also be used to impersonate co-workers, police, bank, tax authorities, clergy, insurance investigators — or any other individual...

Both the judiciary and the media are engaged in the same task: to discover the truth...

...SEPT. 2014 PESTLE ANALYSIS: INDIA POLITICAL ANALYSIS Democracy is the focal point of the Indian political system, but is often constrained by social tensions due to religious, caste and linguistic differences. Some of the communal flare-ups—such as Babri Masjid in 1992, Godhra in 2002, and the large exodus of India’s northeastern migrants from the southern cities in 2012 due to fear of attacks by Muslims— have rocked the whole country in the past. In 2013, the country again witnessed communal riots between Jat Hindus and Muslims in the town of Muzaffarnagar (located in the state of Uttar Pradesh), which has been deemed as ―the worst instance of political violence in the country in the last decade‖. In addition, the government’s assent to the creation of a new state of Telangana in southern India has brought intensified demands for new states in other parts of the country, either on ethnic lines or for better administration. Current strengths Strong democratic setup India is the largest democratic nation in the world and principles of democracy are deeply entrenched in the Indian political system.

There are national level elections, state level elections, municipal elections and panchayat (village) level elections, all of which require citizens to exercise their vote. As per the World Bank’s Worldwide governance Indicators, India ranked...
