Change SSH PORT(DevOps)

By default, loggging to the server via SSH is done on the port 22. Knowing that, attackers scan the port 22. Changing the port to a different one makes the attacker’s job more difficult. To do that:

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Change:

port SSH 22

with a new port (let’s say 1234), write the new port down somewhere Close the file and:

service sshd restart
