I’ve done research and I’m not sure if got the idea correctly. Is SSH used to remotely access the computers with encryption? Is it like how TeamViewer (connecting a remote computer) works?
In: Technology
Ssh works by establishing a connection with another computer. It makes this connection by using a key. There’s a public and private key. These are made when you make a certificate and you can distribute the keys to whoever should be allowed in. Think of the public key as the “key hole” and the private key as the “key”. One key for every key hole, so only distribute the private key to trusted people.
Once that connection is made, you’re running a cli in the other computer and it’s showing it to you through terminal. So yeah, kinda like team viewer but you only get text back for the cli variant. I’ll skip ssh tunnelling.
