The SSH (Secure Socket Shell) protocol protects data in the following ways:
- Before transferring data between the client and the host computer, the SSH calls upon the SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) to authenticate both the server and the client machine.
- Once the authentication process gets over, the SFTP protocol works on to set a secure channel between the client and the host computer by establishing a secure connection and then only the data transmission is initiated.
- SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) protects the integrity of the data using encryption and cryptographic hash function techniques.
