    As one of the most widely deployed protocols for remote access and secure administration, SSH needs little introduction. For the first time, researchers demonstrated that a large portion of cryptographic keys used to protect data in computer-to-server SSH traffic is vulnerable and were able to calculate the private portion of almost 200 unique SSH keys…
