Bastillion
Bastillion is a web-based SSH console that centrally manages administrative access to systems. Web-based administration is combined with the management and distribution of users' public SSH keys. Key management and administration are based on profiles assigned to defined users. Administrators can log in using two-factor authentication with Authy or Google Authenticator. From there they can manage their public SSH keys or connect to their systems through a web shell. Commands can be shared across shells to make patching easier and eliminate redundant command execution. Bastillion layers TLS/SSL on top of SSH and acts as a bastion host for administration. Protocols are stacked (TLS/SSL + SSH) so infrastructure cannot be exposed through tunneling/port forwarding. Also, SSH key management is enabled by default to prevent unmanaged public keys and enforce best practices. Bastillion is available for free use under the Prosperity Public License.

DropBear
Dropbear is a relatively small SSH server and client. It runs on a variety of Unix platforms. Dropbear is open-source software, distributed under an MIT-style license. Dropbear is particularly useful for "embedded"-type Linux (or other Unix) systems, such as wireless routers. If you want to be notified of new releases, or for general discussion of Dropbear, you can subscribe to the relatively low-volume mailing list. With a small memory footprint suitable for memory-constrained environments, Dropbear can compile to a 110kB statically linked binary with uClibc on x86 (only minimal options selected) Dropbear server implements X11 forwarding and authentication-agent forwarding for OpenSSH clients. The server, client, keygen, and key converter can be compiled into a single binary (like busybox) Features can easily be disabled when compiling to save space. The multi-hop mode uses SSH TCP forwarding to tunnel through multiple SSH hosts in a single command.
