2. Robert Siudak (Kościuszki Institute) - Why not let yourself be hacked?
What do the American presidential election and the supply of chicken wings to your fast-food have in common? As recent years have shown, in both cases hackers can influence them using not only technology but also the human factor.

3. Jakub Mrugalski (Niebezpiecznik.pl) - How we stole PLN 13 million from Polish companies - case study
Sociotechnical attacks are very different from classical computer intrusions, and unfortunately more and more often they concern Polish companies. When people are the target of attacks, you never know how they will react. Employees have to be ready for everything and make quick decisions. There is no time for victims to consult on security policies, and only common sense can help them. Unfortunately, in stress and fatigue, not everything works as it should....
