Google hacking is the term used when a hacker tries to find vulnerable targets or sensitive data by using the Google search engine. In Google hacking hackers use search engine commands or complex search queries to locate sensitive data and vulnerable devices on the internet.
Although Google hacking techniques are against Google terms of service and Google blocks well-known Google hacking queries, nothing can stop hackers from crawling websites and launching Google queries.
Google hacking can be used to locate vulnerable web servers and websites which are listed in the Google search engine database.
In other words, hackers can locate many thousands of vulnerable websites, web servers and online devices all around the world and select their targets randomly.
This kind of attack is most commonly launched by applying Google hacking techniques to satisfy junior hackers.
