Abstract
With the rise of technology, Server requirements have grown at an overwhelming pace. Accessing these servers and performing administrative tasks on them remotely has always been a great challenge. A popular utility used for this is the Secure Shell (SSH) which is being used extensively to get shell access on servers. SSH is however prone to vulnerabilities like Dictionary Attacks and Man-In-The-Middle (MITM) attacks. Further on, accessing servers from mobile devices is not yet feasible, SSH remains the de facto choice for it however SSH via third-party applications from mobile devices poses a security risk. In this paper, I've proposed an alternative system for accessing servers from mobile devices from operating systems Android and iOS. The main idea here is to keep commands pre-defined on servers and facilitate their execution from mobile applications securely.
