The goal of the working group is to update and standardize the popular
SSH protocol. SSH provides support for secure remote login, secure file
transfer, and secure TCP/IP and X11 forwardings. It can automatically
encrypt, authenticate, and compress transmitted data. The working
group will attempt to assure that the SSH protocol
o provides strong security against cryptanalysis and protocol
attacks,
o can work reasonably well without a global key management or
certificate infrastructure,
o can utilize existing certificate infrastructures (e.g., DNSSEC,
SPKI, X.509) when available,
o can be made easy to deploy and take into use,
o requires minimum or no manual interaction from users,
o is reasonably clean and simple to implement.
The resulting protocol will operate over TCP/IP or other reliable but
insecure transport. It is intended to be implemented at the application
level.
