Inspiration

Our inspiration was the IoT's hack that attacked the Dyn DNS services. And to try and get more into CyberSecurity.

What it does

Our product takes the html file off of shodan and we put them in a csv file and then the csv file would be put back into an array list in python and ran through a geo location api and the recorded longitude and latitude would be put in an csv file. After that the csv file gets put through a python script that runs a google maps api that plots the points of the geo locations and the google maps are then hosted to a website.

How we built it

We built this using mostly python and bash scripting that connected to different api's and websites.

Challenges we ran into

We ran into many challenges with python and the different versions and the library's we needed for this project. We also ran into problems with how the csv files would be ran through the different scripts and to output to a webpage ran off of the google map api.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Overall, we feel very proud to have made a working project that could do the task as we intended, but almost entirely automated. As a group, we ran into issues along the way that seemed insurmountable, but our ability to pivot and salvage our designs allowed us to have a poof of concept along with aspects built entirely from scratch.

What we learned

All of us had to develop in python, in addition to the development we all had to participate in, it allowed us to learn more about technology with regards to PLC's, IoT, terminals, OS's, and web development.

What's next for Scrubbed.io

This sparked our interest in creative expression, all of us were deeply engaged and enjoyed having a project that hinged on the collective success of the group.

My contribution was with regards to finding a dynamic solution to the IP addresses that we would be collecting from Shodan, and that same data would be brought through an API and returned as a location.

Developed a mathematical relationship between geographical coordinates and pixels on an image. These ratios were used in an algorithm that plotted longitude and latitude as coordinates on a map. Made a html website that plotted our data accurately on a map using a google api.

Throughout the competition, I attempted to obtain the IPs of the PCLs through shodan - a search engine for IP addresses and ports. We had determined what ports GE's PCL's operated on, so finding the PCL's were not difficult with shodan. Originally my plan was to take the html code from the web page and then parse it to find the IP addresses. However, this proved challenging. After figuring out how to extract HTML code from a web page, I figured out shodan attempts to block a bot from visiting its page. This took quite some time, but I figured out how to make the bot mimic a user/web browser in order to visit the page. This allowed me to download the html code, but another problem arose. Shonan was using javascript to dynamically display the IP addresses. I attempted to use a headless browser to access the javascript information, but I was unable to implement javascript into python. However, I was unsuccessful. I then assisted in other people's mini-projects for our grand challenge and ultimately was in charge to put together our final proof of concept.
