Well it would be security through obscurity if you changed the port, but didn't require any authentication on your ssh server.
There was a time when people would do stuff like this, have a modem that would dial in to a corporate system without any authentication. With the idea being that they would have to guess the phone number. Then later on in the name of security making sure that you had to connect at a certain arbitrary bitrate.
I understand the point of the article, I just think it's too narrow of a definition. The whole thing is just arguing semantics anyway.
- R0b0t1 6y agoNo, you're still getting additional security from the port move. The argument being made is nonsensical.
- dec0dedab0de 6y agoYou get additional security from any form of obscurity. No one has ever argued otherwise.
