title: 'Remove SSH Server firewalld Firewall exception (Unusual)'
description: |-
By default, inbound connections to SSH's port are allowed. If
the SSH server is not being used, this exception should be removed from the
firewall configuration.
<br /><br />
{{{ describe_firewalld_prevent_service(service="ssh") }}}
rationale: |-
If inbound SSH connections are not expected, disallowing access to the SSH port will
avoid possible exploitation of the port by an attacker.
