Secure Shell (SSH) encrypts communications between hosts over an insecure network. SSH encryption is great for logging into and executing commands on networked computers, and is also useful in tunneling, port-forwarding and secure file transfers using the SFTP protocol.
Unfortunately, most SSH packages are designed for PC's, and not devices. This means they can be somewhat unwieldy in memory-constrained device environments, and the performance of typical commercial or OpenSSH offerings can be pretty disappointing, as well.
So what are your OpenSSH alternatives? We’d like to offer up Mocana’s NanoSSH™ as your best OpenSSH alternative. It’s part of the Mocana Device Security Framework, and NanoSSH is an OpenSSH alternative that is faster, smaller, better documented and has a much lower total cost of ownership.
Compare OpenSSH alternatives below, and see how Mocana’s optimized SSH package - NanoSSH - measures up.
