Using SSH to connect to an Azure virtual machine

Title

You can use SSH to connect to Azure virtual machines that run either Linux or Windows.

Learn how to connect here:

SSH provides a secure, encrypted way to sign in to your VM, but using a password can still expose the VM to brute‑force attempts. Flexera recommends the safer option of connecting with SSH keys, which use a public key and a private key to verify your identity.

The public key is stored on the VM, and the private key stays on your computer. Keep the private key secure and do not share it. When you connect, the VM checks that your SSH client has the correct private key, and if it matches the public key on the VM, access is granted.
