locate.
-- DESCRIPTION
Secure Locate provides a secure way to index and quickly search for
files on your system. It uses incremental encoding just like GNU
locate to compress its database to make searching faster, but it will
also store file permissions and ownership so that users will not see
files they do not have access to.
ie: locate <search string>
