SSH, which is an abbreviation for Secure Shell, is a network protocol employed to transfer protected data between a client and a server, making it impossible for unauthorized parties to intercept any information. Many tech-savvy users favor SSH due to the improved level of security. The connection is created and the commands are sent through a command line. The offered options depend on the type of web hosting service - on a shared server, in particular, files may be relocated or deleted, databases may be imported and exported, and archives could be set up or unpacked. On a virtual or a dedicated server, your choices are a lot more - the web server and the database server could be started/stopped/rebooted, server-side software may be installed and more. These things aren't possible on a shared server, because full root access is required and all the other customers on that server shall be affected. Even though SSH is employed predominantly with UNIX-like Operating Systems, there are SSH clients for other OSs as well - Windows, Mac OS, and so on.
