The FTP protocol, for example, transfers passwords in plaintext The advantage of SSH (also of SFTP), in contrast to FTP or Telnet, is that starting with the authentication of the user and server up to the transfer of data, everything is cryptographically encrypted - it is not possible for a potential attacker to intercept passwords and data. OpenSSH provides tools in order to access remote machines securely. The commands rlogin, rsh, rcp and telnet can be replaced by OpenSSH. You can find detailed information and help under: (englisch) Additionally, other TCP/IP connections can be securely forwarded (tunneled) through SSH.
