Easy, Low Touch, Zero Trust SSH using OpenZiti

Download zssh/zscp from the OpenZiti Test Kitchen at https://github.com/openziti-test-kitc... SSH/SCP is the premier mechanism that developers and administrators utilize for connectivity between computers and servers. It is standard software that every developer or administrator has come across at one point or another. It provides secure connectivity from one computer to another. Zssh/zscp are programs that take the Golang OpenZiti SDK combined iwth the standard golang libraries to make a new “CLI” (command line interface) application allowing someone to use SSH/SCP over an OpenZiti network without the need for a tunneling application such as a VPN! As you may know and as you'll see in this video, SSH/SCP requires a port to be open in order to accept incoming connections from remote computers. Putting an SSHD (the server equivalent to SSH) server on the open Internet will result in numerous and continuous attacks against the open port. With zssh and OpenZiti you can close those open ports to the internet!
