Changing the SSH port from the default of 22 is often debated as a method to improve security. However, this practice is considered security through obscurity, which doesn't effectively enhance security. Automated tools can easily identify the new port, making the remapping ineffective. Instead, better security measures include disabling root access, forcing key-based authentication, and using tools like Fail2ban to monitor and block suspicious activities.
