SSH (Secure Shell) is a secure network protocol used to access a remote machine securely, while Telnet is an unencrypted network protocol used to access a remote machine. SSH is more secure than Telnet as it encrypts data and passwords before sending them over the network, while Telnet is an unencrypted protocol which sends data in plain text, making it vulnerable to interception. Additionally, SSH provides additional authentication methods such as public key authentication, while Telnet only offers authentication via a username and password.
