Social Engineering Toolkit

The Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET) is a framework designed specifically to perform social engineering attacks, helping security professionals understand human-based security risks. SET includes modules for crafting realistic phishing emails, creating malicious payloads, and conducting advanced social engineering tactics, such as website cloning. Often used to educate and train staff on recognizing social engineering attacks, SET provides insights into the human element of security, which is crucial, as users are often the most vulnerable link in an organization’s security chain.
