New security risks, continuously evolving regulation and increasing
security standards have created new and growing needs for secure
internal information transfers, which SSH provides. This book
addresses these new trends in depth, offering the most up-to-date
information on the integration of SSH into a security environment.
It covers the newest features and applications of SSH-2 (which
received Proposed Standard status from the IETF in 2006). SSH2 is
more secure than previous versions and has many expanded uses on a
wider variety of computing platforms. Another particular note
driving new SSH2 adoption are the requirements of recent
legislation (PCI/HIPAA/SOX/FISMA). SSH 2 has become an even more
valuable tool, as it provides communications security compliance
with the latest standards.

This book offers the most up-to-date information on SSH2 in a
practical, hands-on, tutorial-style reference that goes well beyond
UNIX implementation. It concentrates on the latest version of SSH 2
with all new information and is accompanied by companion Website
that contains useful scripts and utilities, providing
administrators with the newest ways to incorporate this most useful
utility into their network tool box.

* Discover why SSH2 offers more robust security than SSH1 and how
to incorporate it into your network administration software
toolbox.

* Case studies illustrate the benefits of SSH2 in diverse
applications from e-commerce to data management.

* Companion Web site provides custom scripts and other useful
utilities, which can be tailored to meet the needs of your specific
environment
