The default for new installations is now + "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password", which disables password authentication + for root without breaking systems that have explicitly configured SSH + public key authentication for root. + . + This change makes systems more secure against brute-force password + dictionary attacks on the root user (a very common target for such + attacks).
