I want to disable password authentication and log in to my server using SSH keys for better security. How do I generate a key pair and add the public key to SoftPanel Pro?

Hi Deepak. In SoftPanel Pro, go to "Security" -> "SSH Access". There you will find a tool to "Manage SSH Keys". You can generate a new key pair there (and download the private key), or you can paste your existing public key into the authorization form. Once your public key is authorized, you can disable password authentication in your SSH client for a more secure connection.
