SSH Configuration & Policy Scanner: ssh_scan
SSH Configuration & Policy Scanner SSH, or secure shell, is a secure protocol and the most common way of safely administering remote servers. Using a number of encryption technologies, SSH provides a mechanism for establishing a cryptographically secured connection between two parties, authenticating each side to the other, and passing commands and output back and forth. SSH supports different key exchange algorithms, ciphers and message authentication codes. The server and the client choose a set of algorithms supported by both, then proceed with the key exchange. Some of the supported algorithms are not so great and should be disabled completely. SSH_scan is a standalone open source scanner for auditing configuration and policy settings of SSH server configurations.
