In this video we're going to take a look at Google Advanced Operators, also known as Google Dorks.
Now you're going to do a lot of searching on the web.
So things like Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Yandex, Baidu, whatever.
And most of those search engines will have their own versions of Google Dorking.
A lot of it's going to be basically the same, uh, uh, context for how you how you actually input
those search criterias.
And these links here are going to be in a text file in the resource file for this video.
So you can refer back to that if you want to take a look at it.
So in short, Google does have uh certain filters that you can put in when you're searching.
So instead of just searching for oh, I want to search for misinformation, you type in misinformation
comes back A lot of stuff.
These search operators will actually isolate down what you're looking for.
Uh, really just, uh, kind of make things a lot easier for what you're looking for.
So, um, things like, uh, the typical search operators are going to be, uh, site related file type
in title and text in your URL.
So things like end title.
If I put in end title colon and I put in hacking, it's going to look for things that with the title
hacking.
If I do file type colon uh pdf um it's going to look for PDF files.
Uh same thing with in-text if I'm saying in-text if that website it scrapes it in, it has whatever
text I'm looking for in URL.
If that URL matches that search criteria, it's is going to look for that.
So in this example Google has we have site youtube.com space cat videos.
So what this is going to do is it's going to look at this at the site youtube.com.
And it's going to search for cat videos.
So let's just use that.
And there you go a whole bunch of cat videos on YouTube.
You can change that up to um.
Shows and videos.
And there we go Osint videos on YouTube.
You can also take go to exploit database.
Now this is a resource database that has a whole bunch of terms that we could use to do searches.
And this comes in really handy, especially if we're doing things like web pentesting, for example.
So if I go on this sidebar here, I can do g db.
So Google hacking database.
Let's go there.
And this has a whole bunch of keywords that people already kind of figured out and posted up here for.
If we want to do any sort of searching.
So if I want to search for, say, passwords okay.
And we could do grab one of these here, we can kind of modify it for what we're looking for on a site.
So description Intitle index of password txt Intitle index of Inurl passwords.
And this basically looks for passwords.
Now I could put it in here and we could do a search.
And we could see different things about different passwords here.
Now if I want searching for a specific site, I could do.
I could do site colon, the website, and then do this, and then it'll pull up the that information
for that particular website.
So again pretty pretty cool website here.
And there's a whole bunch of of these in here.
We can see that there are almost 8000 entries at the time of this recording.
Now another great place you can go is Google.
Google actually has an advanced search page and you could do all of these words, this exact phrase,
any of these words and none of these words.
So you can eliminate words that you don't want to see in in the your search criteria numbers ranging
from language.
I could select a language if I'm searching out something very specific.
If I want to search on a specific region, I could choose a region here.
Last update site domain terms appearing and I can do URL tech.
Uh, and title is page anywhere in the page file type, uh, usage rights and so forth.
So this if you don't want to remember the different search criterias or you having problems with it,
you could try Google's advanced search.
Again this is from Google.
Just put fill in all the fields that you that are relevant.
And I would suggest filling as much as you can to try to isolate that search down and then uh, hit
advanced search and then it'll search for uh, within your parameters there.
So pretty cool.
Um, sites and uh, things you could do on Google.
Again, this goes far beyond just going into Google and going, hey, Google, uh, show me, you know,
whatever.
This actually will save you a whole lot of time in searching results that don't apply to what you're
doing or looking for.
Thank you so much for watching.
I'll see you next video.
