SHODAN for Penetration Testers

Presented at The Next HOPE (2010), July 16, 2010, noon (60 minutes).

SHODAN is a computer search engine unlike others. Instead of scouring the web for content, SHODAN scans for information about the sites themselves. The result is a search engine that aggregates banners from well known services. For penetration testers, SHODAN is a potential game changer as well as a gold mine of potential vulnerabilities.
