What is this Service?:
  • Shodan is a search engine for Internet-connected devices. Are you interested in measuring which countries are becoming more connected, which version of Microsoft IIS is the most popular or you want to find the control servers for malware? Maybe a new vulnerability came out and you want to see how many hosts it could affect? Shodan helps answer these questions and more.
  • How is it different than other search engines?
    • The most fundamental difference is that Shodan crawls the Internet whereas other search engines crawls the World Wide Web. However, the devices powering the World Wide Web only make up a tiny fraction of what's actually connected to the Internet. Shodan's goal is to provide a complete picture of the Internet.
  • Full Run down of the service here.

Editor's Notes & Price Research

Written by
  • This Service is rarely on sale. The last sale we saw for it was back in 2019.
  • The membership is a one-time payment of $4. There is no subscription involved at all! Becoming a member permanently unlocks all of the above features on your Shodan account for a single payment.
  • From F.A.Q.: Is the membership really a lifetime upgrade?
    • Yes! There is no subscription cost associated with becoming a member - it's a one-time payment for a lifetime upgrade. -slickdewmaster

This is a very rare sale on this service. Normally $49. I think the last sale of $1 was Black Friday of 2019 for a few hours.

Description from wikipedia for those who don't know about this site

Quote :
Shodan is a search engine that lets the user find specific types of computers (webcams, routers, servers, etc.) 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 server sends back to the client. This can be information about the server software, what options the service supports, a welcome message or anything else that the client can find out before interacting with the server.

It serves the purpose of letting security researchers know how widespread vulnerabilities are. If there wasn't a commonly known Shodan, there would be a Hidden Shodan only known by the bad actors.
Stop with the FUD. This is a useful tool for tons of reasons not the least of which is actual cybersecurity. A lot of businesses maintain accounts because it's good to, y'know, have a backup way of checking if anything you own is exposed to the open internet.

For home use, it's a nice way to see whether that Chinese webcam you got from a different SD last week is phoning home or exposing your feed to the world. And if you want to get fancy and start automating some checks Shodan offers a pretty neat API.

For the price of a latte this is an amazing resource.
Yes, because every business is a huge enterprise with a dedicated InfoSec team led by a CISSP.

You don't think there are smaller businesses that can make legitimate use of this? For many they do nothing and this would be better than zero.

A friend I know used to use this site (or something like it) a long time ago to access publicly accessible webcams in people's homes, businesses, etc... It was really creepy.

Pretty much. It's done in the name of "knowledge", but that's its only real use. It should have been shut down a long time ago.

You're already on the list. There's nobody who isn't. You're the enemy.
