  • hiba

    HIBA is a system built on top of regular OpenSSH certificate-based authentication that allows to manage flexible authorization of principals on pools of target hosts without the need to push customized authorized_users files periodically.

  • Interestingly enough this is getting another layer on top of it. Google is working on something called "HIBA" (https://github.com/google/hiba) which is an extension to OpenSSH SSH Certificates.

    So now you have layers of:

    - SSH RFC

    - OpenSSH extensions to SSH

    - Google extensions to OpenSSH
