There are already over 10 billion connected devices active today, and that figure is expected to reach 64 billion by 2025. Shodan runs its scans 24/7, ensuring all its data is up to date. Shodan has picked up support for IPv6 addresses, but you won’t see those as often you can see IPv4.

Shodan Dorks

WHAT IS SHODAN?

It is a search engine that lets the user find specific types of computers (webcams, routers, servers, etc …) currently connected to the internet using a variety of filters. Some have also described it as a search engine of service banners, which are metadata that the device sends back to the client.

Shodan the scariest search engine on the internet

Shodan terrifies non-technical people who don’t understand how the internet works. CNN called Shodan the “Scariest search engine on the internet” in 2013. This is definitely of no sense since attackers intent on causing harm don’t need Shodan to find targets.

Beware of the attacks on your own devices! 

A quick search for the term “default password” reveals countless printers, servers and system control devices that use “admin” as their user name and “1234” as their password. In many cases, it doesn’t even have a password, and you leave it blank. Until today, many connected systems require no credentials at all!

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GOOGLE OR ANOTHER SEARCH ENGINE?

The most fundamental difference is that Shodan Eye analyzes the Internet, while Google analyzes the World Wide Web. Moreover, the devices connected to the World Wide Web are only a small part of what is really connected to the Internet.
