Just two days ago, the team at Shodan introduced Shodan Monitor, a new website that helps users to setup network alerts and keeps a track of what’s connected to the internet.
Features of Shodan Monitor
Networking gets easy with Shodan Monitor
Users will be able to explore what they have connected to the internet within their network range. The users can also set up real-time notifications in case something unexpected shows up.
Scaling
The Shodan platform can handle networks of all the sizes. In case an ISP wants to deal with millions of customers then Shodan could be reliable in that scenario.
Security
Shodan Monitor helps in monitoring the users’ known networks and their devices across the internet. It helps in detecting leaks to the cloud, identifying phishing websites and compromised databases.
Shodan navigates users to important information
Shodan Monitor helps in keeping the dashboards precise and relevant by proving the most relevant information with the help of their web crawlers. The information shown to the users on their dashboards gets filtered before getting displayed to them.
Component details
API
Shodan Monitor provides users with developer-friendly API and command-line interface, which has all the features of the Shodan Monitor website.
Scanning
Shodan’s global infrastructure helps users to scan the networks in order to confirm that an issue has been fixed.
Batteries
Shodan’s API plan subscription gives users access to Shodan Monitor, search engine, API, and a wide range of websites.
Few users are happy about this news and excited to use it.

According to a few others, the website still needs some work as they are facing error while working with the website.
Hey. Thx for that nice feature, but I get an error that reached the limit on the number of networks, but I don’t have any network configured!??? 😐
