In a social engineering attack, there is typically a delivery tool and an attack method. To configure a delivery tool and attack method for a social engineering attack, you use campaign components. A campaign component refers to an e-mail, web page, or portable file. It is a configurable component that you use to build a social engineering campaign.
Each campaign must have at least one campaign component. Most campaigns will have an e-mail component because it is the most commonly used delivery method for social engineering. In addition to the e-mail component, you can add web pages to build phishing scams or add portable files to create file attachment attacks.
