Backstage: cryptographic R&D internship at Cossack Labs
Now, the real world work starts. We introduce interns to the world of popular cryptographic libraries, help them to make their first OSS contributions, and let them practice with our cryptographic library Themis which provides a high-level crypto API on 14 languages.

The Quest Continues: Porting the Word Game With AsyncSSH
Like we briefly mentioned previously, Paramiko and AsyncSSH are libraries we can use to build SSH Server applications (they are also excellent as SSH client libraries). Though the former garnered more stars on GitHub, the amount of information on how to build an SSH Server application is surprisingly sparse. From what I read, it also required quite extensive setup.

CLI SSH works, but Netmiko/Paramiko results in "Authentication type (password) not permitted" error
It actually looks like the device is using auth type “none”. And looks like paramiko might not support password-less authentication https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/issues/1437.
- Trying to use NETCONF on Python3.10 and getting an error
- Fabric is a Python library designed to execute shell commands remotely over SSH
- Ansible Update broke SSH pubkey access via paramiko

First time using Ansible. Running into an error message but not sure how to resolve. Any ideas?
I was able to find this: https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/issues/2004
- Can I run my functions remotely via SSH?
-
How can I host a terminal-based game so that people can just play it in their terminal without needing to clone my repo and run it locally?
I don't use python, but it looks like this paramiko library is your answer. There's a demo server listed that can answer connection requests and handle I/O for the connection without having a shell session as an intermediary.
