As such, you can use it to transfer files or view web pages securely, and there are many other applications. The best-known application for SSL is encrypting a form submission so you can send your credit card details to a retailer without fear of an eavesdropper on your network viewing your credit card number. SSL communication is not necessarily authenticated (you can encrypt your communication with a website without giving any username/password). </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">SSH is more specifically for remote login and has almost completely replaced Telnet for command-line access to remote computers. Other applications for SSH include file transfer using SCP and secure port forwarding (to provide private access to systems behind a firewall). SSH communication is generally authenticated (either with a username/password or a public/private key pair).</li> </ol>So yes, both allow you to communicate with remote computers through an encrypted channel, and both can do file transfers. But they have different applications in practice.<a href="https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-is-difference-between-SSL-and-SSH" target="_blank">https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-is-difference-between-SSL-and-SSH</a>1. SSL -> Web Sites 2. SSH -> Remote Logins</blockquote>
