Google is the most popular search engine ever created, but Google's
search capabilities are so powerful, they sometimes discover content
that no one ever intended to be publicly available on the Web, including
social security numbers, credit card numbers, trade secrets, and
federally classified documents. Google Hacking for Penetration Testers,
Third Edition, shows you how security professionals and system
administratord manipulate Google to find this sensitive information and
"self-police" their own organizations.
You will learn how Google Maps and Google Earth provide pinpoint
military accuracy, see how bad guys can manipulate Google to create
super worms, and see how they can "mash up" Google with Facebook,
LinkedIn, and more for passive reconnaissance.
This third edition includes completely updated content throughout and
all new hacks such as Google scripting and using Google hacking with
other search engines and APIs. Noted author Johnny Long, founder of
Hackers for Charity, gives you all the tools you need to conduct the
ultimate open source reconnaissance and penetration testing.
