h1. Limited SSH access

By default _root_ login on SSH is prohibited.
This is done because _root_ login is well-known, and to hack with [[Password brute-force]] it's enough to guess password.
To obtain _root_ rights one should use _sudo_ application like is described in section [[How to acquire root access]].

Also those IP addresses, which have SSH access, are put into firewall white-list.
To add a new address, you should appeal to Streamco tech support, or have access to physical console.
This type of protection should protect against following types of attack:

* [[Stolen password]]
* [[Password brute-force]]
