Abstract
The human factor has a great influence on the security of information, in particular computer information, in almost any organization. Quite often people encounter attacks based on social engineering methods, but usually they do not even realize that, for example, an e-mail from a stranger contains a link that could cause personal data leakage. Social networks are developing both quantitatively and qualitatively. The security of user data in these networks is being improved. At the same time, users who actively maintain their social networks, post photos with their children, show themselves to everyone, leave their phone number in the public domain, and after a while they begin to receive calls from unfamiliar numbers in order to offer all sorts of intrusive services or attempts withdraw all funds from the user’s card. These examples relate to the personal life of a person, his money, but nothing prevents criminals from performing exactly the same attacks in order to steal from some huge company, for example, a seaport, whose money is many times greater than the money of an individual, and the withdrawal failure of the seaport information system can lead to a collapse. To increase the efficiency of protection of the information systems of the seaport, this work examines modern methods of social engineering, methods of countering attacks, principles of building information systems, and suggests improved methods of countering attacks.
