I’m so tired of hearing people quote “security by obscurity” in relation to moving ssh ports. It is NOT security by obscurity (SBO). SBO is taking an insecure thing and trying to hide it, and relying on the hiddenness as the ONLY means of security. SSH is already highly secure, so hiding it has nothing to do with the security. You can debate whether it’s worth the inconvenience vs reducing log spam, but SBO does not come into it at all.
