| SSH (Telnet) |
|
| As the internet grows it is more frequently the subject of security breaches. The easiest way to hack a website is to setup a sniff program, usually at an ISP and grab the username and password where a user is logging into. This is very easily done when a client uses telnet because telnet passes all information to the server in clear text. |
|
| When we allowed users to access our network with telnet we had at least one hack attempt per day. Successful hack attempts could result in damaged or destroyed sites, stolen information, and FBI investigations. |
|
| GBITech now has one of the most secure networks thanks to the cooperation of all shell account users who are abandoning telnet and accessing their account via Secure Shell (SSH). SSH does not pass any information in clear text but rather uses secure encryption. There are two companies we recommend who sell client versions of SSH. They are Datafellows and SecureCRT. |
