SSH Credentials

Description

General

Documentation: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4251
Summary: The Secure Shell (SSH) Protocol is a protocol for secure remote login, command-line and other secure network services over an insecure network. This detector aims at catching ssh authentication, typically in a command line, using a username separated by a @ from a host, and a password or in the form of variable assignments.
IPs allowlist: IP addresses granted with access to the remote host can be restricted by setting iptables rules on the server side.
Scopes: Users management can be set on the server side to restrict user rights on the machine.

Revoke the secret

A revocation list can be set on the server side to specify some rsa public key that should not be granted access.

Check for suspicious activity

All activities and connection attempts can be logged on the server.
