What is SSH?

SSH, or Secure Shell Protocol, is a cryptographic network protocol used for securely accessing and managing network devices and servers, via a command-line interface.

SSH is like a secure line of communication between two devices. It’s widely used to remotely access and manage servers, enabling users to execute commands and manage files on their Raspberry Pi or Linux systems securely.

For Raspberry Pi users, SSH is particularly handy. You might be working on a project and need to run commands on your Pi without hooking it up to a monitor. With SSH, you can do this easily from another computer!
