`censys` is an R package interface to the [Censys API](https://censys.io/api)
Censys is a search engine that enables researchers to ask questions about the hosts and networks that compose the Internet. Censys collects data on hosts and websites through daily [ZMap](https://zmap.io/) and [ZGrab](https://github.com/zmap/zgrab) scans of the IPv4 address space, in turn maintaining a database of how hosts and websites are configured. Researchers can interact with this data through a search interface, report builder, and SQL engine.
[Censys tutorial](https://www.censys.io/tutorial).
The following functions are implemented:
- `censys_export_download`: Download export job files to a specified directory
- `censys_export_job_status`: Get status of a Censys export job
- `censys_get_job_result`: Get results of completed Censys SQL query job
- `censys_get_job_status`: Get status of a Censys SQL query job
- `censys_query`: Issue SQL Queries against the Censys API
- `censys_report`: Create aggregate reports on the breakdown of a field in the result set of a query
- `censys_search`: Perform queries against Censys data
- `censys_series`: List all series that can be queried from the SQL interface
- `censys_series_details`: Get details about a series, including the list of tables and schema for the series
- `censys_start_export`: Export large datasets and structured records from Censys to JSON or CSV files
- `get_series`: Retrieve data on the types of scans Censys regularly performs ("series").
- `view_document`: Retrieve data that Censys has about a specific host, website, or certificate.
- `view_result`: Retrieve data on a particular scan "result"
- `view_series`: Retrieve data that Censys has about a particular series
### Installation
```{r eval=FALSE}
devtools::install_github("hrbrmstr/censys")
```
```{r echo=FALSE, message=FALSE, warning=FALSE, error=FALSE}
options(width=120)
```
### Usage
```{r message=FALSE, cache=TRUE}
library(censys)
# current verison
packageVersion("censys")
library(purrr)
library(dplyr)
res <- censys_query("
SELECT p80.http.get.headers.server, p80.http.get.headers.www_authenticate, location.country, autonomous_system.asn
FROM ipv4.20161206
WHERE REGEXP_MATCH(p80.http.get.headers.server, r'gen[56]')
")
inf <- censys_get_job_status(res$job_id)
Sys.sleep(10) # giving it some time to process for the README
map(1:3, ~censys_get_job_result(inf$job_id, .)) %>%
map(c("rows", "f")) %>%
flatten() %>%
map("v") %>%
map_df(~setNames(as.list(.), c("server", "auth", "geo", "asn"))) %>%
count(geo, sort=TRUE)
```
### Test Results
```{r}
library(censys)
