Terenval Crypto Glossary · Русская версия

Social engineering

Definition: Social engineering is the manipulation of people into revealing information or authorizing actions that benefit an attacker rather than breaking cryptography directly.

Crypto attackers use urgency, authority, fear, greed or impersonation to obtain seed phrases, approvals or signatures.

How this concept appears in Terenval Wallet

Terenval users should treat requests for recovery material, remote access or unexpected signatures as suspicious regardless of how convincing the sender appears.

Important: Verify identities through an independent official channel rather than the contact method that initiated the request.
