Learning objectives

  • Master advanced SSH configurations for professional server administration
  • Implement key and certificate authentication in an enterprise context
  • Develop secure SSH tunnels for reliable remote connections
  • Automate SSH tasks with scripts and certification tools
  • Optimize SSH security against common production attacks
  • Diagnose and resolve SSH issues in complex environments

The Learni story

Founded by engineers and learning experts, Learni's mission is to make high-impact tech training accessible to teams everywhere. We work remotely with organizations across the US and Canada, in your time zone, to help teams upskill fast.

Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

  • Without this upskilling, your team accumulates a technological gap that translates directly into productivity loss.

  • Organizations that don't train their talents on key topics see their competitiveness drop.

  • Every quarter without training is a gap widening with competitors who invest.

  • The cost of inaction quickly exceeds that of well-targeted training.

Program

Module 1SSH Configuration: OpenSSH Installation and Optimization (clients, servers, config files)

Installation and setup of OpenSSH on Linux servers, in-depth exploration of sshd_config and ssh_config files for professional customization, practical exercises on multi-host connections with advanced options like compression and keepalive, performance tests on virtual machines, creation of a secure SSH environment ready for enterprise with logs enabled and basic monitoring.

Module 2SSH Authentication: Key and Certificate Management (generation, secure distribution)

Generation of RSA/Ed25519 key pairs via ssh-keygen, implementation of passwordless authentication for automated access, configuration of SSH certificate authority for centralized enterprise management, exercises on revoking compromised keys, practical cases of deployment on server clusters with granular authorization by user and group.

Module 3SSH Tunnels: Local, Remote, and Dynamic Forwarding (SOCKS proxies, database access)

Creating local tunnels to securely expose internal services, setting up remote forwarding for reverse administration, configuring dynamic SOCKS proxy via ssh -D for anonymous browsing, practical exercises on secure access to a remote MySQL database, simulation of enterprise scenarios with encrypted tunnels crossing firewalls, production of persistent configurations via scripts.

Module 4SSH Automation: Bash Scripts, Ansible, and CI/CD Integration (passwordless deployment)

Development of Bash scripts for batch SSH tasks like automated backups and deployments, integration with Ansible for multi-server orchestration, use of ssh-agent and multiplexing to speed up production connections, exercises on Jenkins CI/CD pipelines with secure SSH, concrete enterprise cases for updating server fleets, deliverables including ready-to-use playbooks.

Module 5SSH Security and Troubleshooting: Hardening, Audits, and Incident Resolution (Fail2Ban, logs)

Hardening SSH against brute-force attacks and known exploits using Fail2Ban and access restrictions, advanced analysis of syslog logs for intrusion detection, attack simulation exercises with tools like Hydra, interactive diagnosis of common issues like timeouts or rejected keys, complete audit plan for GDPR compliance in enterprise, finalization of the ongoing project with a certifying security report.

Evaluation method

  • Technical MCQ on SSH configurations and security protocols
  • Practical evaluation through resolution of real incident scenarios
  • Presentation of the ongoing project: secure and automated SSH server

Learning method

  • Courses led by a certified active SysAdmin expert
  • Practical exercises on virtual servers and authentic business cases
  • Progressive ongoing project to configure a complete SSH ecosystem
  • Detailed course materials and OpenSSH resources provided to participants

Methods, materials and delivery

The Training SSH - Securely Administer Remote Servers program is delivered onsite or remote (blended-learning, virtual classroom, remote presence). At Learni, an industry-certified training organization, every program is built to maximize skills acquisition regardless of the chosen format.

The trainer alternates between demonstrative, interrogative and active methods (through hands-on labs and/or scenarios). This pedagogical approach guarantees concrete learning that's immediately applicable at work.

Equipment required

For the smooth delivery of the Training SSH - Securely Administer Remote Servers program, the following equipment is required:

  • Mac or PC computers, high-speed fiber internet, whiteboard or flipchart, projector or interactive touch screen (for remote sessions)
  • Training environments installed on workstations or accessible online
  • Course materials, hands-on exercises and complementary resources
  • Post-training access to materials and educational resources

For intra-company training on a site outside Learni, the client commits to providing all required teaching materials (computers, internet, etc.) for the smooth delivery of the program in line with the prerequisites in the communicated program.

Skills assessment methods

Assessment of skills acquired during the Training SSH - Securely Administer Remote Servers program is performed through:

  • During training: case studies, hands-on labs and professional scenarios
  • End of training: self-assessment questionnaire and skills evaluation by the trainer
  • After training: completion certificate detailing acquired skills

Program accessibility

Learni is committed to making its programs accessible. All our programs are accessible to people with disabilities. Our teams are available to adapt the pedagogical methods to your specific needs. Please contact us for any adjustment request.

Enrollment terms and lead times

Registration is possible up to 48 business hours before the start of training. All our programs are built for corporate L&D budgets and delivered onsite or remotely.

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
