Castle vs OpenSSH: What are the differences?
Developers describe Castle as "Track security events or any unstructured data from your web backend or mobile app, and Castle will look for anomalies". Castle looks for suspicious login patterns without bothering the legitimate user nor the site administrator. The fully-automated anti-hijack engine identifies potential account compromises based on where the user logs in from and how they navigate the site. On the other hand, OpenSSH is detailed as "Free suite of tools that help secure your network connections". It is the premier connectivity tool for remote login with the SSH protocol. It encrypts all traffic to eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other attacks. In addition, OpenSSH provides a large suite of secure tunneling capabilities, several authentication methods, and sophisticated configuration options.
Castle and OpenSSH can be primarily classified as "Security" tools.
Some of the features offered by Castle are:
- Security Analytics

On the other hand, OpenSSH provides the following key features:
