SSH Public Key Authentication

How it is checked

Audit method: Manual review

This recommendation cannot be checked automatically. A scan lists it with these instructions when you pass --include-manual.

Run 'show ssh authentication-method' (SSH publickey authentication must be Enabled) and 'show user <username> authorized-key' for each administrator to confirm an SSH public key is installed.

How it is fixed

Fix method: Guidance or infrastructure patch

user <username> authorized-key <user public-key> Added SSH client's authorized-key with key-identifier 1.
