Google Hacking
Technical details
Every penetration test should start with a passive reconnaissance phase. Public search engines gather amounts of information about almost every website from the Internet. It's a good idea to make specific queries and get relevant data. Use them to discover sensitive information or data that’s not supposed to be public.
Google has a set of advanced search operators to use and find interesting information about a target website or domain.
Our free tool aggregates different Google dorks sources you can use to extract sensitive information. Discover more Google dorks here.
Parameters

Target website / domain | As the name says, this is your target website or domain for which you are querying Google. When you specify a domain name (e.g. adobe.com ), Google will return results for all subdomains of adobe.com such as: repo.adobe.com , get.adobe.com , rmsdemo.adobe.com etc. |
