Explanation

The 'site:' Google search operator restricts search results to a specific domain or subdomain (e.g., site:company.com). This is a fundamental OSINT technique used during reconnaissance to enumerate indexed pages, subdomains, and files within a target's web presence. The 'inurl:' operator (A) searches for a keyword within URLs but does not restrict to a single domain. The 'link:' operator (B) finds pages that link to a specified URL. The 'intitle:' operator (D) searches for keywords in page titles. Only 'site:' directly limits the search scope to the target domain.
