Abstract
As the world is getting digitized and Internet of Things (IoT) devices are becoming more and more popular, this has led us to an advantage of improving our life in perspective of quality. The security threat related to IP is also increasing. But unlike in other technologies, a common way to prevent these threats is not possible. And when it comes to a developing Nation such as India, it becomes more difficult to prevent from such threats. Shodan is one of the world’s most acknowledged search engine. In this paper, we have given an overview of Shodan in perspective of India. Furthermore, we have evaluated various IoT devices using Shodan based on different parameter in India. We have also given our views on how these devices can easily be exploited using Shodan.
