VulnCheck faces a horde of honeypots while assessing the potential impact of Atlassian Confluence's CVE-2023-22527. This blog delves into Shodan queries to filter out honeypots and uncover the actual on-premise Confluence install base.

Cyber threat intelligence largely involves the tracking and studying of the adversaries outside of your network. Gaining counterintelligence about your adversaries' capabilities and weaponry is one of the final building blocks for managing a strong cyber defense. In the pursuit of performing this duty, I have been studying how to discover adversary infrastructure on the internet.

It is often used to monitor networks, look for vulnerabilities, and ensure the security of an organization's perimeter.
