As we gather information on our target, it is important to remember that traditional websites are just
one part of the internet.
So Shodan is a search engine that crawls devices connected to the Internet including but not limited
to the World Wide Web.
This includes servers that run websites, but also devices like routers and Iot devices.
So let's go to show them like here, Google it.
Go to it.
Here you can put just the hostname then the website or the domain.
So hostname then what?
Google dot com.
Now I know it's not a good to practice that on google, but this will not harm.
By the way, you need to log in in order to use search filters.
So for now let's use google dot com.
And here you can notice that we have some information like as you can see the server.
What it is regarding this server is in France and other servers.
We found some servers by the way, these are not for Google dot com, but it showed us some information
about some servers.
Okay.
Now actually Shodan is very huge topic and it's very powerful tool, but just keep that in your mind
for now.
What is shodan and how to use it?
Okay.
This is just a high level.
