Summary
Researchers developed SSH-Tracker, a tool that analyzes SSH (Secure Shell, the encrypted protocol used to securely access remote computers) behavior by examining network traffic patterns without decrypting the encrypted communication itself. The tool can identify specific SSH activities and behaviors by studying how data flows through encrypted connections, potentially revealing user actions even when the actual content is protected.
