What you'll do

In this lab, you will learn how to use Secure Shell Protocol (SSH) to establish secure communications between systems.

  1. Configure SSH on Kali Linux
  2. Establish an SSH connection by using password authentication
  3. Configure SSH to use public key authentication, and then establish a connection with a user’s private SSH key

Note: Once you begin the lab, you will not be able to pause, save, or exit and then return to your lab. Please ensure that you have set aside enough time to complete the lab before you start.
