What is ssh-auditor?
SSH Auditor is a command-line tool written in Go that scans network ranges for SSH servers and tests them against a database of weak username/password combinations. It helps system administrators identify vulnerable SSH configurations by automating the discovery and credential testing process, storing results in a SQLite database for ongoing monitoring.
System administrators, network security teams, and penetration testers responsible for securing SSH services on internal or external networks.
Developers choose SSH Auditor for its lightweight, automated approach to SSH security auditing, with features like incremental scanning, customizable check intervals, and duplicate key detection that reduce manual effort while providing continuous visibility into credential vulnerabilities.
