The course will focus on finding security vulnerabilities in the Internet of Things online devices using Shodan. This workshop will be especially useful for those who want to learn more about OSINT, cybersecurity, and technology in general.

Why THIS course? 

This course will give you practical, hands-on exposure to vulnerability hunting specific to IoT as well as some digital intelligence gathering techniques. Focused on the topics of OSINT and IoT, it’s quick and can be done in an hour - but you will be able to put your new knowledge to the test in the real world right after you finish. If you were looking for a self-contained tutorial on OSINT, Shodan, IoT, or all of the above, this is the perfect course for you!

Why take it NOW? 

Both OSINT and IoT security are now trending in the cybersecurity space. IoT is a growing field and more and more tech is appearing on the market, thus increasing the potential surface of attack against people who simply keep those devices at home. At the same time, OSINT skills supplementing reconnaissance are fast becoming one of the most essential tools for any pentester.

Who is this course for? 

  • Those interested in cybersecurity in general
