  • Key Concepts: 
    Secure Shell (SSH) is a cryptographic network protocol used to secure data communications between two networked computers. It is used to authenticate and encrypt data sent over a network, providing a secure connection between two computers. SSH is commonly used in cloud computing environments, such as SAP Cloud Platform Cloud Foundry (CF). 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use SSH, you must first generate an SSH key pair. This consists of a public key and a private key. The public key is used to authenticate the user, while the private key is used to encrypt the data sent over the network. Once the key pair has been generated, it can be used to securely connect to a remote computer or server. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using SSH, it is important to keep your private key secure. It should never be shared with anyone else, as it can be used to gain access to your system. Additionally, it is important to use strong passwords for your SSH keys, as weak passwords can be easily cracked by attackers.
