HOWTO: Integrating SSH tunneling inside your application


Security is always a major concern in an application. But when an application attempts data communication over a network, it becomes even tougher ordeal to keep the connection secure.

What is SSH Tunnel?

SSH is an encrypted network protocol generally used for remote shell service, secure data communication, command execution etc. In SSH tunneling, a payload protocol is wrapped around the SSH protocol (the delivery protocol) and sent over the network.
