What is the Shodan MCP Server?

The Shodan MCP Server is a bridge service that connects AI assistants to the Shodan search engine. It allows AI assistants to query information about various devices and services on the Internet through simple commands, including IP address details, network device scans, SSL certificate information, etc.

How to use the Shodan MCP Server?

You can directly send query commands through an AI assistant (such as Claude), or integrate the server into your MCP-compatible application. The server will automatically process Shodan API requests and return easy-to-understand results.

Use cases

Scenarios such as network security analysis, device monitoring, vulnerability research, network asset discovery, and IoT device tracking. It is particularly suitable for professionals and security researchers who need to quickly obtain information about Internet devices.

Main Features

Host Information QueryObtain detailed technical information about a specific IP address, including open ports, service types, geographical location, etc.
Advanced SearchUse Shodan's powerful search syntax to find specific types of devices and services.
Network ScanScan an entire network range (in CIDR notation) to discover active devices and open services.
SSL Certificate QueryObtain detailed information about the SSL certificate of any domain name, including the issuer, validity period, and fingerprint.
IoT Device SearchSpecifically search for specific types of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as cameras, routers, or smart TVs.

Advantages and Limitations

Advantages
Simplifies the complex calling process of the Shodan API
Provides structured results for easy understanding and presentation by AI assistants
Supports multiple query methods to meet different needs
Can be easily integrated into the existing AI assistant ecosystem
Limitations
Some advanced features require a paid Shodan API key
Query results are limited by the coverage of the Shodan database
Large-scale scans may take a long time
Device information in some countries/regions may be incomplete

How to Use
