SSH Server Installation and Security in Linux: 10 Useful Steps

SSH stands for Secure Socket Shell, one of the well-known service protocols used to execute an operation to the remote administration over the internet.

SSH was developed for the replacement of insecure remote protocols like Telnet, rlogin, and rsh.
