What is Shodan?:
  • 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.

Keep track of the devices that you have exposed to the Internet. Setup notifications, launch scans and gain complete visibility into what you have connected.
Can someone help me understand what this does?
Short answer is: hackers can use Shodan to search for devices (IP cameras, Internet of Things, etc) that are connected to the internet. They can see which ports the devices are using and hopefully connect to these devices with default username/password and pivot into your network.

It seems like regular price is $49 for the lifetime membership. It seems interesting... Does anyone have any real world experience with them? It seems like vul reports are not available at this tier... understandable though I guess.

It seems like they have been around since 2009.

That just mentions the middle box for network exposure I'm guessing, what about the first and last box for "beyond the web" and "internet intelligence"?

Cant you just use nmap on linux to see all devices and open / exposed ports?

What is Shodan?

Shodan is a search engine scanning the entirety of the internet for connected devices. Shodan is similar to more well-known search engines like Google, but instead of indexing websites, Shodan indexes each publicly available device connected to the internet.

Shodan can discover a ton of devices, from home baby monitors to the SCADA systems that are used to run a variety of industrial processes, from water treatment facilities to power plants. Academics, governments, and cybersecurity professionals use Shodan for a variety of reasons, including network security analysis and market research. Shodan can show developers how many users have installed the latest patch, and it can ping subscribers when a new device is added to their enterprise's network.

Shodan is not a VPN or a network security tool — if you're trying to keep your internet access private and protect your devices from cyber attacks, you need a trustworthy VPN like ExpressVPN and a good antivirus like Norton.

Apparently on shodan you can search for open ports of random ips they scan, like if you have a plex or minecraft server it shows the version and you add filters to find them, basically if you want to exploit vulnerabilities on peoples computers?

Not if you want to do passive reconnaissance.
