SSH

Several jailbroken iPhone users recently had their iPhones held hostage by a Dutch iPhone hacker. They were surprised one day to find a message on their device stating that their precious iPhone had "been hacked because it's really insecure," saying the mystery messenger had access to all of their files.

JBrink.net has just released TouchTerm, a native SSH client for the iPhone in the App Store. TouchTerm lets you access and administer servers from anywhere over Wi-Fi or EDGE/3G. It also lets you control font size and color, type in landscape mode, scroll over terminal output, save connection parameters and passwords (optional), and keep a cross-session command history.
