SSH : Secure Shell is a application using which you can log into another computer over a network so that you can execute commands you require on a remote machine. using SSH you can easily move files from one machine to another. SSH protects network from attacks such as IP spoofing, IP source routing, and DNS spoofing. Usually SSH is not offered with shared hosting environment due to security issues but some host do provide it for shared hosting plans where they have few servers where it is offered. Some do provide SSH in more secure format as Jailed SSH.
All data exchange carried out using SSH is in encrypted format which takes place between client machine and server. Most webhost will provide you an interface for SSH access through cPanel so that you can administer it effectively.
You can easily modify/change private keys which are must when communicating through SSH. when you are using private key you are not required to enter username and password when you are logging into your Linux server as such private keys are unique in their nature. Usually you use such private keys when you are running scripts that enquires SSH access to another server.
