Secure Shell

Terminal emulator and SSH and SFTP client.

What is Secure Shell?

Secure Shell is a groundbreaking Chrome extension that acts as an xterm-compatible terminal emulator and stand-alone ssh client. It uses Native-Client to directly connect to ssh servers, bypassing the need for external proxies. Its package also comes with an SFTP command line client. Especially on ChromeOS, you can establish SFTP mounts and smoothly access them via the Files app. An early version of Mosh is now included. It's a well-tested, tried-and-true extension, with a proven track record.

Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact. If you have any needs, please contact us via the following contacts Whatsapp: +1 (248) 896‑8035 Telegram: t.me/harryysandersonn
