Google talking or Google hacking is it computer hacking technique that uses Google search and other
Google applications to find security holes in the configuration of any computer no Web site etc..
You will actually use the advanced search operators offered by Google in order to locate specific logic
such as string text within a result.
So let's go directly for the examples Google offers enhanced or advanced search operators such as in
your l indexed site etc..
So let's jump directly to the example to know what I'm talking about.
So suppose that you want to stretch for a confidential document on the Internet under a governmental
Web site for example.
So here you have to know the parameters that you want to search.
You want to search for governmental site and confidential document and the type of the document.
So we started this Web site is the parameter or search operator that defines what kind of site we're
looking at.
So here we're looking for any governmental site file type we're looking for.
Suppose video file and here you name the string that you want to search for.
This document is corn feed and child.
So let's see what we have.
We've got some video files here.
Let's look into into them let's just open these files here and search for the word confidential confirm
there is no confidentiality here.
This looks like confidential confidential this document is confidential not for public inspection.
So here you go you find one confidential document confidential as well.
So this is just a basic way to search for confidential documents and this is if you're targeting someone
in mind you need to dig more and to do more research.
But as you can see it's it's very easy to find this.
This information here I suppose now you want to find passwords for example.
Usually files or log files contain a string called your password is kept.
So I want to search for the string.
Your password is in a file type which is a log file.
And this will return actually a couple of load files.
You just can open and look into them.
Let's search for best word so password as this so that a person in that password to see your password
is
this is a no go file.
Let's search for another file so here you go.
The user name is your password is.
This is just an example.
And see this file
looks like a configuration file so it sets a no go as well.
So as you can see we found that for example this username and password and you can take it further.
Suppose that you want to search for usually the servers are published on the Internet for example and
some IP cameras are published so let's go for the print server as well.
A parameter called entitle it will search in the title of the page and the parameter in your URL will
search for the other end of the page only so entitle.
Let's say
network print server and file type is S H T M you will be able to see a couple of results.
Just open that and you have access to this was the.
Yeah exactly.
These two pages here are in servers published online.
Another example if you want to find a page with greats for example final grades you can search you can
use this in your l final grades.
And the site is educational site we're looking at reporting final grade.
Let's try this again here.
Find an underscore or grade maybe yeah for the grades for lower grades fun of grades to PBF.
So here we go.
List of final grades plus ideas final grades as well.
Finally grades.
So as you can see you can tailor the searched in ways you want.
Using the advanced operators again in your l and text file type site.
There are lots of lots more you can use but these are the basic ones.
I'll tell you another good thing.
So instead of like keeping those in mind what do I want to do in terms of searching and crafting some
Google Docs your l.
You can go to the exploit DP web website and go to this link here.
Google hacking database and you will see all of these here.
You just need to search for the category.
Here you go.
Let's take an example for example vulnerable files.
Let's see this or maybe files containing passwords.
These are some of the examples here.
So just click on them.
It will open the page with the detail you are out that you need to type in Google.
So just press on that it will return the results and you can take it further from here by clicking on
the result.
So actually this is the way it goes.
You have a list of exploits here you can use in Google search to run the attack that you want.
And this is just the beginning.
If you must have Google Search and Google advanced operators you can have access to anything published
online such as firewalls intrusion detection systems video recording systems U.P.S. monitors even building
management systems IP telephones and even credit card information and CDC information.
