A short update on SSH security

André Niemann

Everybody uses it, the most of them love it. But who really understands SSH security measures?
Therefore i will revive these. Starting at publickey security to protocol security.

Nowadays, there is often a lack of real understanding of protocols and tools. That is just natural due to the complexitiy of modern systems and the huge amount of parts needed to interact. Since SSH is one of the two most common prototols for transport layer security and used for secure remote shell access it is important to understand it security and weaknesses. To improve the situation the talk will show hints where to look at and why.
