Description¶

SSH servers exposed to the public internet should be properly secured with strong authentication methods and restricted network access to prevent unauthorized access.

How we test: We scan for exposed SSH services on public IP addresses and analyze their configuration. We check if SSH ports are accessible from the internet and verify that proper security measures such as strong authentication and access restrictions are in place.
