What Are Connected Devices? Discover with Shodan Uncover the Hidden Devices on Your Network with Censys. Shodan is a program that crawls the internet using the global network. It requests connections from every IP address on the web and then indexes all the pieces of information it receives. While not every IP will return information that’s useful, most will respond with banners that contain device metadata. This includes the device name and location. This information can be used to gather information about the devices that are connected to the internet.
