Let’s dive in:

🔍 Shodan, the ‘search engine for devices’, can find devices connected to the internet, including Windows servers with open Port 3389, commonly used for Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP).

Why does this matter?

🎯 Open Port 3389 can be a target for hackers, exposing your server to unauthorized access.

So, what can you do for protection?

1️⃣ Change Default Port: Alter the default RDP port to reduce visibility.

2️⃣ Use Strong Passwords: Ensure robust, unique passwords for RDP access.

3️⃣ Enable Network Level Authentication (NLA): Adds an extra layer of authentication.

4️⃣ Implement VPN Access: Access RDP through a VPN for enhanced security.

5️⃣ Regular Updates: Keep your system and security patches up to date.

Remember, knowledge is power! Understanding Shodan’s capabilities helps you reinforce your defenses. Secure your Windows servers and stay cyber safe! 🔐🖥️ #cybersecurity #cyber #dataprivacy #foryou
