Securing SSH Servers with SonicWall Cloud Secure Edge (CSE)

Updated on May 31, 2024

Overview

Secure Shell (SSH) is the secure industry-standard program for accessing remote Linux servers. The SSH protocol runs on top of TCP/IP; the standard TCP port for SSH is 22. End users interact with SSH via dedicated client software, typically the openssh client.

For connectivity, Cloud Secure Edge (CSE) treats SSH just as it does any other TCP Service, using Mutually Authenticated TLS (MTLS) flows to provide secure zero-trust access.

CSE can be also configured to enable SSH certificate authentication using an SSH CA.
