Good old Google

I noticed an interesting presentation at this years RSA about hacking using Google’s API. I’d been aware of the challenges posed by Google Search for sometime but as it does not directly effect me I paid little attention to it. The recent problems with the Google Toolbar harvesting user information (yes you can switch this feature off) made me have a quick look at the Foundstone SiteDigger Tool. For a look at some of the things you can find checkout the Goolge Hacking Site. The question comes to mind is the problem with Google or the fact people are not building their infrastructure correctly?
