Use cases

• find shodan dorks for exposed devices
• learn shodan search query syntax
• assess internet-exposed attack surface
• find unsecured webcams and IoT devices on shodan
• research vulnerable industrial control systems online
• security awareness training examples of misconfigured devices

When to choose

• you want a curated reference of proven Shodan search queries
• you are doing OSINT research or security assessments of internet-facing devices
• you want real-world examples of exposed IoT and ICS systems for education

When to avoid

• you need a scanning or exploitation tool rather than a list of search queries
• you are looking for an active software project with code
• you lack a Shodan account, since most filters require one
