SET is a Social Engineering Toolkit. This tool allows us to clone a popular website, applying the method of impersonation, which is one of the many methods of Social Engineering. Social Engineering itself is the act of exploiting human vulnerabilities in order to obtain sensitive information. Hence, through the act of impersonating a popular website, it is possible to extract sensitive information from people who are gullible.
