When data reaches its intended recipient, SSH decrypts it. This updated book thoroughly covers the latest SSH-2 protocol for system administrators and end users interested in using this increasingly popular TCP/IP-based solution.How does it work? Whenever data is sent to the network, SSH automatically encrypts it. While it doesn't solve every privacy and security problem, SSH eliminates several of them very effectively.Everything you want to know about SSH is in our second edition of SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide. It's reliable, robust, and reasonably easy to use, and both free and commercial implementations are widely available for most operating systems. SecureCRT includes a 30-day evaluation license for the fully-functional application and technical support.Are you serious about network security? Then check out SSH, the Secure Shell, which provides key-based authentication and transparent encryption for your network connections.

SecureCRT and the SecureFX file transfer client can share global and session options and the host key database so configuring a connection only needs to be done once. Securely transfer files using SFTP, or by using Zmodem or Xmodem from an SSH1 or SSH2 session. Other features include the Activator tray utility to minimize desktop clutter, auto logon, printing, Emacs mode, and SOCKS firewall support.ĪctiveX scripting support saves time by automating routine configuration tasks. An optional 'FIPS Mode” uses a FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic library and only allows FIPS-approved algorithms.

Named sessions and firewalls let you create session-specific configurations. Customization options include toolbars, menus, keymaps, and login scripts, as well as fonts, cursors, and color schemes. SecureCRT has a multi-session tabbed interface with extensive session management features.

Multibyte character sets are supported for Japanese, Korean, and Chinese, as are scalable line-drawing fonts. Emulations include VT100, VT102, VT220, ANSI, SCO ANSI, Wyse 50/60, Xterm, and Linux console - all with ANSI color. Ciphers include AES, Twofish, Blowfish, 3DES, and RC4. SecureCRT supports SSH1, SSH2, Telnet, Telnet/SSL, RLogin, Serial, and TAPI protocols and authentication via password, public-key, X.509 certificates, and Kerberos v5 via GSSAPI.

SecureCRT provides versatile solutions for business, network management, information security, and development tasks, from accessing host-based applications and administering servers to securely accessing behind-the-firewall network resources. SecureCRT protects passwords, user accounts, and data, combining rock-solid terminal emulation with the strong encryption, broad authentication options, and data integrity of the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol.
