Every time when you use a regular search engine, your search data is recorded. Major search engines capture your IP address and use tracking cookies to make a record of your search terms, the time of your visit, and the links you choose - then they store that information in a giant database.
What is SSL?
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol that helps to provide secure Internet communications for services like web browsing, e-mail, instant messaging, and other data transfers. When you search over SSL, your search queries and search traffic are encrypted so they can't be read by any intermediary party such as employers and internet service providers (ISPs).
Here a list of SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) search engines for anonymous Internet search is given below:
Encrypted Google Search over Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) get a complete encrypted search link between your computer and Google. When search traffic is encrypted, it can't be read by third parties trying to access the connection between a searcher's computer and Google's servers. The service is available on web searches only, images and maps search are still not using SSL encryption.
Google Encrypted can be accessed through:

In the end, Google has no way to know you’re the person who did the search. Additionally, Scroogle also offers the ability to search over an encrypted (SSL) connection, so your ISP (or corporate network, etc) can’t see what you’re searching either.

Hi the only SSL Search Engine that you present is Google SSL (beta) and of course Scroogle.
ReplyDeleteThe rest of them do not encrypt the word that are you wanna search.
Try a tcpdump
I think that you are saying depends on "https"
ReplyDeleteAnyway the SSL search engine which, I provided will secure your info from ISP. . .
Hi, again.
ReplyDeleteHow do yo explain this: http://ge.tt/905edw5
I do not wanna fake you. Try your self and pelase explain us.
See you, I only want to learn. :D
PD: The files expire in 30 days.
My next article will be about Packet sniffer(i.e., tcpdump); this will clear all your confusion
ReplyDeleteSend your e-mail id or follow this blog, I will make an indication when an article is published
Sorry for the late reply currently I am in out of hometown now. . .
Perfect, thanks.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is added to my rss feeds.
See you :D
Hi $iva.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your post "Monitoring Network Traffic Using Packet Sniffing Tools".
In the other hand is not clearing nothing about our conversation. I continue thinking that plain text is sent by all the serachers except google ssh (and of course scroogle) that really encrypt your search (you can see that in the screenshots: http://ge.tt/905edw5).
In that images you can see the word "andruixa" greped when we use that searchers, instead you can not see that word when we use scroogle (searcher based on ssl-Google)
Thanks and see you.
hi
ReplyDeleteWhen you searching in search engine their should be a packet transfer,Even you can see packet transfer in https(as you said Google ssl)
Just read a first paragraph of this article you may understand this . . .
You can see packet transfer in every process that processed in internet/network ,visit "Monitoring Network Traffic Using Packet Sniffing Tools" for details
