Using the Linux CLI for open source intelligence gathering can be pretty powerful. Let me show you some examples:
\nI am using Ubuntu 18.x for below outputs (debian based).<\/p>\n

Shodan<\/strong>
\nsudo pip3 install shodan
\nshodan host 172.217.167.67<\/code>
\n\"shodan\"<\/a>
\n<\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br>
\nshodan host [IP] command searches what shodan’s database knows about an IP address.<\/p>\n

IPinfo<\/strong>
\nFrom the cli run the following:
\nnikon@theinsecurewire:~#curl ipinfo.io\/172.217.167.67
\n{
\n \"ip\": \"172.217.167.67\",
\n \"hostname\": \"syd15s06-in-f3.1e100.net\",
\n \"city\": \"New York City\",
\n \"region\": \"New York\",
\n \"country\": \"US\",
\n \"loc\": \"40.7143,-74.0060\",
\n \"org\": \"AS15169 Google LLC\",
\n \"postal\": \"10004\",
\n \"timezone\": \"America\/New_York\",
\n \"readme\": \"https:\/\/ipinfo.io\/missingauth\"
\n<\/code>
\nOutput is returned in json format so you can script it with jq<\/code>.
\nInstall jq and create a text file of IPs:
\nnikon@theinsecurewire:~#apt install jq<\/code>
\nnikon@theinsecurewire:~#touch ips.txt<\/code>
\nnikon@theinsecurewire:~#for ip in $(cat ips.txt); do echo -n \"$ip: \"; curl -s ipinfo.io\/$ip | jq .org; done
\nnikon@theinsecurewire:~#172.217.167.67: \"AS15169 Google LLC\"
\nnikon@theinsecurewire:~#172.217.167.68: \"AS15169 Google LLC\"
\nnikon@theinsecurewire:~#172.217.167.69: \"AS15169 Google LLC\"
\n<\/code>
\nAs you can see above those IP’s below to the Google AS 15169.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
