SSH Telnet
Find out what Telnet is and where it’s employed.
Secure Shell, better known as SSH, is a cryptographic network protocol that is used to execute commands on a remote web server or to exchange data between a website hosting server and a client. Because the data exchanged by the 2 sides is protected, a third party can't intercept it, which makes SSH a preferred means of handling a web hosting account. The commands which could be executed depend on the type of hosting service. On a shared web server, in particular, the choices are limited as you will not have root access to the server, so you can only create/move/delete files, create and unpack archives, export and import databases, and so on. They're all actions which are performed inside the shared hosting account and don't require a higher level of access. Using a virtual or a dedicated server, you will have the option to install server-side software or to restart the machine or just a specific service (web server, database server, etc.). SSH commands are submitted through a command line, and if you don't use a UNIX-like OS, there are a lot of applications for other OSs, you can use to connect to the remote web server as well.
