Enabling SSH

Enabling SSH is required on your Mac OS if we are scanning via our device.

Please note: if you would prefer to use public key, you can setup your system appropriately and provide Cyber Tec Security Assessors with the keys required to access your system.

  1. Go to “System Preferences”
  2. Select “Sharing”:

3. Click your Padlock to make changes and enter the Admin password:

4. Enable “Remote Login”
5. Ensure that access is allowed for the ScanAdmin user:

You can verify if it is working by trying to access locally, just enter:

ssh localhost -p 22

NOTE: Whilst not always required for MAC, if you are running specific firewall software please ensure you allow our IP address range (provided to you by your assessor) into/onto your machine.
