A non-technical exploit refers to a security vulnerability or attack that does not rely on flaws in code or underlying protocols but rather on human error, social engineering, or operational weaknesses. Examples include phishing scams, psychological manipulation, or insider threats. These exploits target the human element within a system. They bypass cryptographic security measures by manipulating individuals.
