Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Practice Question

During a social engineering assessment, you create a fake LinkedIn account impersonating an executive from the target company. Before sending connection requests to specific employees, which action will most effectively increase the profile's credibility and reduce the chance of being quickly reported or auto-flagged by LinkedIn?

  • Connect with real people in the same industry and company first, building a base of mutual connections and group memberships.

  • Disable two-factor authentication to avoid login issues when working through multiple proxy IP addresses.

  • Leave the profile photo blank to avoid potential image-theft complaints.

  • Set the entire profile to private so only approved contacts can view details.
