# SSH tab

This tab allows you to add your SSH public key to the server, enabling keypair authentication for SSH.

We recommend toggling the option Only allow SSH authentication by keys on when all SSH keys have been added. This provides extra security, even when your system user credentials have been compromised!

If deploying multiple SSH keys, please consider using Groups! This allows centralised access management over all servers, eliminating the need to control access on your servers separately.
