Illicit Networks Summit Decided -Google Will Tackle Internet Crime
Bad news for those who relies on GHDB also widely known as Google Hacking Database while finding vulnerability. This Tuesday the internet giant Google has launched a new policy to turn the tables on criminals and terrorists who exploit the internet by using its search capabilities to expose and disrupt illicit activity. A two-day summit in Los Angeles called Illicit Networks: Forces in Opposition has assembled victims, law enforcers, politicians, academics and technology experts to devise strategies. In their report Guardian says- Google Ideas, the company's thinktank, has teamed up with the Council on Foreign Relations, Interpol and other organizations to look for ways to use technology against organized crime, jihadists and others."Google is in a great position to take these on," Rani Hong, a survivor of child trafficking in India who is now a special adviser to the United Nations, told reporters on the eve of the event. "They're a powerful medium and they have great tools to solve this problem."
Stewart Patrick, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations who helped organise the event, told "It might sound like a different path for Google, but technology companies today have a lot of powerful tools for bringing transparency to these illicit networks, to fight back against corruption and empower those who are trying to combat transnational crime."
Participants will discuss how illicit surgeons and organ brokers smuggle kidneys and other organs; how whistleblowers can expose narcotics networks; how insurance fraudsters and counterfeiters use evade borders. Another topic will be how recovered human skin and bone is transformed into dental and cosmetic products for plumping up lips or smoothing wrinkles.
