Webinar Manipulation in the digital everyday life with Donald Ortmann


Date: 26.03.2026 | Time: 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM


Cyber attacks today rarely start with traditional IT technology - but with a targeted attack on humans or AI systems used in the company. Whether deceptively real emails, calls on behalf of business partners, seemingly harmless inquiries in everyday work, or targeted manipulations of AI inputs (e.g., Prompt Injections): Social engineering is one of the biggest threats to companies of all sizes.

In this webinar, you will learn how social engineering attacks work - both against employees and AI applications, how to recognize typical manipulation techniques, and what specific technical, organizational, and human measures effectively protect employees and companies. Using practical examples, you will receive immediately actionable recommendations for everyday business operations - including for the secure use of AI in the work context.
