The presentation will dive into the process of physical social engineering testing by using a previous test as an example. The presentation will be two-fold and will contain the following highlights:

# What is vital for a company to consider before ordering a social engineering pentesting?
Here I will dive into what a company should focus on before ordering the test, during and in the aftermath of social engineering pentesting.

# How is a physical social engineering pentest performed? What do the testers look for, and why does it work? This section will contain a self-experienced social engineering war story that will take you through the basic thought process of a social engineering pentester. What do they look for before the test, and how do they utilize the information to create a pretext?
