How to find where the websites is hosted, IP, owner etc, ports open and the rest info – Google Chrome extension

Well interested in finding the lurking information for any website which you need the maximum info of that or from it?, well you’re in luck for most of the time in-case you use this cool plugin which shall many times come handy and is basically a info sec tool in reality but can also be used for productivity purpose. Meet Shodan.

The Shodan plugin tells you where the website is hosted (country, city), who owns the IP and what other services/ ports are open.

The Shodan plugin for Chrome automatically checks whether Shodan has any information for the current website. Is the website also running FTP, DNS, SSH or some unusual service? With this plugin you can see all the info that Shodan has collected on a given website/ domain.
Do note that this plugin is somewhat outdated but does the job most surprisingly well indeed.
