I've never heard of Shodan, it seems like a valuable service and seems like you care. I'm not in the 'industrial control systems space', but am in an industry which is 'sensitive'.

The 'last line of defence' is often audit. Are you able to reach out to auditors (Big4) and regulators and educate them on this service (audit often have a financial background, CPA etc, and it's rare to find an auditor with a deep technology understanding, and MBA programs, which a lot of company heads might have taken, tend to lack anything very information technology technically - basically finance rooted)? I'm thinking this could be a business development route for a valuable service; make it a win-win for them too.
