SSH (Secure SHell)

SSH (Secure SHell) is a secure network protocol that provides encrypted, authenticated access to remote systems for command-line login, secure file transfer (SCP/SFTP), and port forwarding, replacing insecure protocols like Telnet by using password or public‑key authentication and a strong cryptography (like AES or RSA) to protect data in transit.
