Today I explored ssh-audit, a tool designed to audit SSH configurations. Although it’s an excellent tool, I found the hardening guides somewhat lacking. Hence, I decided to write a detailed walkthrough, ensuring the ssh/sshd configurations are easily readable.
I have a VPS that runs the main proxy which I can always access via a console on the website of the company I’m renting it from (Hetzner). The other machines run locally in my home so I can just plug in a cable if need be.
