00:00:00,140 --> 00:00:06,830
In this lecture, I would like to show you how can you search for leaked databases that are publicly

2
00:00:06,830 --> 00:00:08,720
available on the internet?

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:16,310
Now we are going to use a very simple search operator that will help us to find these databases.

4
00:00:16,340 --> 00:00:21,530
And as I said before, there are multiple methods to access leaked databases.

5
00:00:21,530 --> 00:00:29,120
You can either have a subscription and search very simply on the hashed intelligence X, etc. or you

6
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:35,510
can download the leaked database on your computer or on your virtual machine, because we do not know

7
00:00:35,510 --> 00:00:37,340
what is in these files.

8
00:00:37,340 --> 00:00:40,130
That's why I highly recommend you use a virtual machine.

9
00:00:40,130 --> 00:00:46,820
And if you don't want to use a virtual machine because it's slow, I recommend you have a dedicated

10
00:00:46,820 --> 00:00:55,280
machine or a computer that is connected to a separate network that you use to download leaked databases,

11
00:00:55,340 --> 00:01:01,280
but for now, we are going to rely on our virtual machine to download and search within these leaked

12
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,300
databases.

13
00:01:02,510 --> 00:01:05,940
So the search operator is going to be as follows.

14
00:01:05,940 --> 00:01:10,530
So I'm going to type for example the database name.

15
00:01:10,530 --> 00:01:17,850
So let me say that I'm searching for 000 web host which is also a website that has been hacked.

16
00:01:17,850 --> 00:01:22,140
And then I'm going to say.com and then dot seven z.

17
00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:25,980
And then I'm going to close it with a quotation mark.

18
00:01:25,980 --> 00:01:30,300
And then I can say leak for example and download.

19
00:01:30,690 --> 00:01:36,630
And I'm also going to search for a magnet link and then hit enter.

20
00:01:37,170 --> 00:01:40,020
And this showed me nine search results.

21
00:01:40,530 --> 00:01:44,190
So we can see that there are multiple search results.

22
00:01:44,190 --> 00:01:48,480
I can open any link and download the database.

23
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:56,460
Another resource that you can use to download a number of leaked databases is called size of dot cat.

24
00:01:56,460 --> 00:02:00,300
So you want to go to this link size of dot cat.

25
00:02:00,330 --> 00:02:05,610
And here you will see multiple links for multiple leaked or breached databases.

26
00:02:05,610 --> 00:02:11,600
We can see AMD and a database from Raidforums that contains multiple databases.

27
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:19,040
So this database does not only contain one database, it actually contains all of these databases.

28
00:02:21,890 --> 00:02:26,900
We can also see that we have Ashley Madison data leak or data breach.

29
00:02:26,900 --> 00:02:29,000
We can download it using this link.

30
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,220
And if this link didn't work then you can search for it using the method that I've talked about at the

31
00:02:34,220 --> 00:02:35,810
beginning of this lecture.

32
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,850
Another thing that I would like to focus on is the size of the database.

33
00:02:40,850 --> 00:02:49,340
So here we can see that this database is 28GB and this one is around 270GB.

34
00:02:49,340 --> 00:02:57,620
And that's why I've said that you might need large disk space or multiple SSDs or hard drives to store

35
00:02:57,650 --> 00:02:59,030
huge databases.

36
00:02:59,030 --> 00:03:05,930
But in your case, you can start with the Facebook, Twitter or Snapchat data leaks and utilize them

37
00:03:05,930 --> 00:03:08,540
to search for someone's information.
