Social engineering is a technique used by attackers to manipulate individuals into divulging sensitive information or performing actions that can compromise the security of an organization. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a security mechanism that requires users to provide at least two forms of authentication to verify their identity. By requiring MFA, even if an attacker successfully obtains a user's credentials through social engineering, they will not be able to access the network without the additional form of authentication.

 Metrics for an information security program should be aligned with the security objectives and strategy, and should demonstrate how well the program is performing in terms of reducing risk, enhancing security posture, and supporting business goals. Metrics that support major information security initiatives, reflect the corporate risk culture, or reduce information security program spending may be useful, but they are not the best approach for establishing metrics for the entire program.
