What will I learn?
Gain expertise in securing SSH by hardening sshd_config, disabling weak authentication methods, and selecting robust ciphers while ensuring reliable access. Design secure setups, implement strong key management practices, and optimise remote access using bastion hosts, SSH config files, and SFTP. Master monitoring techniques, multi-factor authentication, automation tools, and incident response strategies to keep your SSH deployments tough against threats, fully auditable, and production-ready.
