Shodan
{% hint style="info" %}
Shodan is a Threat Intelligence (TI) integration. TI Data Source integrations are used during investigations to improve analysis and in interactive chat to help answer questions. They are optional, but enabling more tooling integrations enhances Dropzone analysis.
{% endhint %}
The Dropzone platform integrates with Shodan, a search engine for devices on the internet. Dropzone can use it for identifying IP device characteristics such as hosting ownership, open ports, or known vulnerabilities.
