- talldayo 2y agoThe best software in the world is actually explicitly designed to survive being social engineered. Launching a nuclear ICBM requires more than 4 levels of remote authorization and combined secrets from 2 trusted sources that live offsite. Being "social engineered" in a situation like this means torturing a half-dozen military personnel for confidential keys you can't even validate.
