Kamerka discover open cameras in your neighborhood

Kamerka: The cameras ς είναι λίγο πολύ κοινότυπες όταν ζείτε σε πόλεις. Πολλές από αυτές τις κάμερες συνδέονται με το Διαδίκτυο και μπορεί να είναι σκόπιμα ή κατά λάθος ανοικτές. Οι εκτεθειμένες συσκευές μπορούν να είναι παντού, από , up to schools, or even indoors.

A new tool lets you see where there are such cameras.

Until today we found the open devices with the Shodan search engine. But the new tool allows everyone to search for open cameras per on a map.

The tool outlines tangibly the insecurity we allow around us, and potentially everyone can use it to track our home or our child.

"You can look for cameras around the world and see if there is an open camera near you," said the security researcher who released the tool, which uses Woj-ciech as a nickname.

As Wojciech explains, the tool Kamerka combines several different pieces of Python code together. Ultimately, it is based on Shodan's search engine to find the exposed cameras first (those who run the tool should have an Shodan account with an API).

Then he uses Geopy, a book of Python that makes it easy to geo-arrange addresses, and cities. The final magic ingredient is Folium, a Python library that handles the of the map.

When a user adds the desired address, the tool returns a list of found devices and creates a map in HTML.
