SSH: passwords or keys?SSH: passwords or keys?Posted Jan 14, 2010 9:27 UTC (Thu) by marcH (subscriber, #57642)In reply to: SSH: passwords or keys? by ohrn Parent article: SSH: passwords or keys?
> Another problem with key authentication that is often forgotten is that even if you have a password on the private key and it gets stolen the thief can brute force the password at his leisure and can use any and all computer power available to him.
But that still gives you some time to cancel/revoke the stolen key (losing a password does not).
