SSH Client for MacOS X

Getting Started with OpenSSH

OpenSSH is an SSH v1.x and v2.x compliant SSH package that is "...freely usable and re-usable by everyone under a BSD license...". It is automatically installed with MacOS X. OpenSSH is thought to be one of the most, if not the most, secure implementation of SSH as it has undergone pain-staking security audits by Theo de Raadt and his team of Open(SSH|BSD) developers.

Using SSH on MacOS X
