SSH, which is an abbreviation for Secure Shell, is a network protocol which is used to exchange protected info between a client and a hosting server, which makes it impossible for unauthorized parties to intercept any information. Many tech-savvy clients opt for SSH mainly because of the better level of security. The connection is established and the commands are delivered via a command line. The offered options depend on the type of Internet hosting service - on a shared server, for example, files can be relocated or deleted, databases may be imported and exported, and archives could be created or unpacked. On a virtual or a dedicated server, the options are significantly more - the web server and the database server can be started/stopped/rebooted, server-side software can be installed and a lot more. These things aren't possible on a shared server, due to the fact that full root access is required and all the other customers on that server will be affected. Even though SSH is used mainly with UNIX-like OSs, there are SSH clients for other OSs as well - Windows, Mac OS, and so forth.
