Overview
Censys is a platform that helps information security practitioners discover, monitor, and analyze devices that are accessible from the Internet.
Censys regularly probes every public IP address and popular domain names, curates and enriches the resulting data, and makes it intelligible through an interactive search engine and API.
Backed by Censys trusted data, threat hunters can easily pivot off key pieces of information to discover hidden infrastructure services in order to:
- Map IP addresses to domains and domains back to IP addresses
- Quickly find server misconfigurations
- Scan attack surfaces for vulnerabilities
