Katana-ds: A Python Tool For Google Hacking

Named after the legendary Japanese sword, Katana-ds is a dork scanner which allows the user to search for vulnerable websites or IOT devices. There are 4 modes available in this software which allow the user to search through Google and the dark web for vulnerable targets. This tool can also be used to search for active Scada devices and for active proxy servers. When used in combination with other software’s, it can provide the user with a powerful Google Hacking combination.

Katana-ds: Dork Scanner

After the scanner has been started, it will ask the user for a mode. If the user selects Google mode, he will enter in a target dork, and Katana-ds will return a list of websites containing the target dork. On selection of Scada mode, the scanner will automatically start to return a list of online Scada devices. Tor mode will allow the user to anonymously search for websites containing the target query through dark web search engines Phobos, Tor66 and Tordex. Selection of proxy server will automatically return a list of 100 online proxy servers.
