Note that Shodan doesn't try to login using default credentials. If you see banners advertising their defaults it just means that the device is telling you what its defaults are - it doesn't mean that the device is still using them.
That being said, a ton of devices still use default credentials but we don't have any numbers on how many exactly.
- grawprog 5y agoI wasn't implying Shodan did this. Shodan just lets you find things. Google reveals default passwords quite readily though. It's alarming how often they work to login.
- achillean 5y agoAh yeah, I didn't think you were :) It's just a common misconception so I wanted to let readers here know.
