Sometimes when you accessing certain IP, you won’t be directed to the website that you want to access. You usually be directed to a CDN server e.g. CloudFlare. It can prevent the attacker to find the real server. That’s mean the website is 100% safe, right? Not quite. While it can’t really be detected by using normal browsing, attackers can find the real IP.
There are several tools to find the real IP. We’re going to take a look at one of them, Censys.io.
Here is Censys.io:



Censys.io provides the lookup for the real IP addresses. It can also show IP that correlated with the IP address.
All you have to do is just put the url into search box and go.
From the details we can know the location, routing system, etc.
However, the result details is not detail enough for the free user.
Also sometimes, it shows the unrelated and unnecessary result.
However, it doesn’t limit the search results.
That’s everything about Censys.io. In the next post, I’m going to show you about another tool for searching real IP.
