🔒 The Lesser Know Story of SSH Port 22 🔒
Ever wondered why SSH port 22 is the default choice for secure remote connections? 🤔
Finnish computer scientist Tatu Ylonen wrote the initial version of SSH in the Spring 1995.
Telnet and FTP were widely used at that time and SSH was written to replace both.
Interestingly, the port number 22 was free andit was right between FTP port 21 and Telnet port 23.
Tatu took the opportunity and used port number 22 to beta test SSH.
The port number remains the default port for SSH till day.
