IoTSeeker / default-cred scanners
Scripts that check IoT devices for factory default credentials.
Authorized testing only. Practice on systems you own, isolated labs, or targets with written permission. Unauthorized access is illegal.
When
Bulk-checking cameras, NVRs, and smart gear on your LAN after inventory.
How
Feed host list; review positives; change passwords and disable remote admin.
Why
Default passwords remain the #1 home IoT problem.
Commands & usage
# Example pattern: run vendor default-cred checks only on owned hosts
nmap -p 80,443,554,8000,8080 192.168.1.0/24 --open
Commands are educational examples. Adapt hosts, paths, and rates to your authorized scope.
