Secure Shell (SSH) is a network protocol that allows you to securely access a remote
server, such as an AWS EC2 instance . SSH is used to log in to a network remotely, and
to perform tasks like file transfers, application deployments, and troubleshooting.

How SSH works


SSH uses public key infrastructure (PKI) technology to create encrypted
communication tunnels between your computer and the remote server.
SSH key pairs are used to authenticate users.
An administrative user can assign a public SSH key to a user, and provide them with
the corresponding private key.

How to use SSH in AWS


You can use the Amazon EC2 console to connect to an instance using SSH.
You can also use OpenSSH to connect to an instance using SSH. OpenSSH works
on Mac, Linux, and Windows 10 or later.

Why use SSH


SSH is important because it protects your data and configurations by ensuring secure
communication between your computer and the remote server.
