SSH (Secure Shell) serves as a secure means for computers to communicate with each other. It establishes a protected connection over the internet, encrypting the data exchanged between your computer and another computer, ensuring its confidentiality.
In the realm of public-key cryptography, data encryption and decryption are facilitated using a key pair. One of the keys, known as the public key, is shared with others to encrypt data. The other key, the private key, is kept confidential and solely utilized by the owner to decrypt the data. This cryptographic approach ensures secure and private communication between parties involved.
