The Google Hacking Database, often referred to as Google Dorks, is a repository of search queries (dorks) used to uncover sensitive or vulnerable information available on the internet. These queries harness Google's advanced search capabilities to pinpoint exposed web servers, directories, and files, sometimes revealing security weaknesses, confidential documents, or login credentials inadvertently made accessible. While primarily used by cybersecurity professionals and ethical hackers for reconnaissance, it underscores the importance of protecting data and configurations. The database serves as a tool for security assessments, risk mitigation, and enhancing online privacy by highlighting potential vulnerabilities.
