About:
ssh-audit is a command-line tool for auditing SSH server and client configurations. It analyzes cryptographic algorithms, protocol versions, and security parameters against industry best practices. The tool provides actionable recommendations to harden SSH deployments and identify potential vulnerabilities.
Key Features:
  • Comprehensive algorithm analysis for key exchange, encryption, and MACs
  • Security grading system with actionable recommendations
  • Support for both SSH server and client auditing
  • No authentication required for server-side audits
Use Cases:
  • Security compliance auditing for SSH infrastructure
  • Pre-deployment configuration validation
  • Identifying weak cryptographic settings in production systems
Alternatives:
  • nmap ssh2-enum-algos – Nmap provides basic SSH algorithm enumeration but lacks detailed security analysis and grading
  • testssl.sh – Focuses on TLS/SSL rather than SSH protocol auditing
