Google is making a fortune on what it knows about you…and you may be shocked by just how much Google does know. \u003ci\u003eGoogling Security\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book to reveal how Google’s vast information stockpiles could be used against you or your business–and what you can do to protect yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eUnlike other books on Google hacking, this book covers information you disclose when using all of Google’s top applications, not just what savvy users can retrieve via Google’s search results. West Point computer science professor Greg Conti reveals the privacy implications of Gmail, Google Maps, Google Talk, Google Groups, Google Alerts, Google’s new mobile applications, and more. Drawing on his own advanced security research, Conti shows how Google’s databases can be used by others with bad intent, even if Google succeeds in its pledge of “don’t be evil.”\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003e  Uncover the trail of informational “bread crumbs” you leave when you use Google search  \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003e  How Gmail could be used to track your personal network of friends, family, and acquaintances \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003e  How Google’s map and location tools could disclose the locations of your home, employer, family and friends, travel plans, and intentions \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003e  How the information stockpiles of Google and other online companies may be spilled, lost, taken, shared, or subpoenaed and later used for identity theft or even blackmail \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003e  How the Google AdSense and DoubleClick advertising services could track you around the Web \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003e  How to systematically reduce the personal information you expose or give away \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis book is a wake-up call and a “how-to” self-defense manual: an indispensable resource for everyone, from private citizens to security professionals, who relies on Google.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePreface xiii\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xix\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAbout the Author xxi\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Googling 1\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Information Flows and Leakage 31\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Footprints, Fingerprints, and Connections 59\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Search 97\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Communications 139\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Mapping, Directions, and Imagery 177\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Advertising and Embedded Content 205\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Googlebot 239\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Countermeasures 259\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 10: Conclusions and a Look to the Future 299\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIndex 317\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pearson Education","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47119794667760,"sku":"9780132701990","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780132701990_p0.jpg?v=1763640407","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780132701990","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
