SSH is an acronym which stands for Secure SHell, which provides a secure shell access to a remote machine.
This brut force tool is great to test some security stuff like iptables or sshguard.
You are able to see the proceeder of real hacking attempt.
Like most brute forcing tools, you’ll first need a pretty big passlist. You can get one from here:
wget http://debianuser.org/bruteforce/passlist.txt
Get SSHBrute python script:
wget http://debianuser.org/bruteforce/brutessh.zip
To get it to work you will need this packages:
aptitude install python-crypto python-paramiko
To start you need some things to specify: hostname, username abd a password list.
This tool in work:
