Overview
What is SSH?
SSH, or Secure Shell, is a secure and encrypted way to communicate with and manage computers over a network. It provides a secure channel for text-based commands, allowing users to access and control remote systems securely.
It’s commonly used for tasks like logging into servers, executing commands, and transferring files between computers, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected from unauthorized access during the communication process.
SSH is used to securely connect with a website’s server. This secure access allows site administrators to perform various tasks such as updating software, managing files, and configuring settings. SSH is particularly useful for tasks that require a command-line interface, like running scripts or executing specific commands. Additionally, it facilitates secure file transfers between the user’s local machine and the web server.

Benefits
Secure Access to Your WordPress Website
Utilizing Secure Shell (SSH) to access your WordPress or WooCommerce website is a prudent choice for several reasons.
First and foremost, SSH ensures a secure and encrypted communication channel between your local machine and the server, safeguarding sensitive information from potential threats during data transmission. With SSH, you gain remote access to your website’s server, enabling efficient and secure management tasks. This includes executing commands, updating software, and configuring settings.
The encrypted connection provided by SSH adds an extra layer of protection, crucial for handling the backend of your website, especially when dealing with sensitive customer data or conducting administrative tasks.
Secure Communication
SSH provides encrypted communication between the client and the server, protecting sensitive data from eavesdropping and unauthorized access.
Authentication
SSH uses strong authentication methods, including password-based, public key, and two-factor authentication, enhancing the overall security of access.
Remote Access
SSH allows users to access a website remotely, making it convenient for administrators and developers to manage servers and perform various tasks without physical access to the server.
Audit Trail
SSH logs all user activities, providing an audit trail for security and compliance purposes. This helps in tracking who accessed the server, when, and what actions were performed.
