J2SSH Maverick has been the leading solution for SSH connectivity on the Java^tm platform for several years now. With the release of this product, Microsoft .NET developers may also now start building secure applications that harness the powerful yet lightweight Maverick architecture.

Maverick.NET has been built with strong emphasis placed upon high performance and low distribution size and this means that Maverick.NET is just as suitable for the development of large scale enterprise Web applications as it is to conventionally-distributed software.

Alternative SSH solutions on the Microsoft® .NET platform are seemingly developed with a 'one-size-fits-all' mentality. Full control over the many powerful functions of the SSH protocol is sacrificed with only the mass-market features included. These solutions are unsuitable for enterprise-class development projects and typically provide no source code option, making independent source code audit impossible.

Maverick.NET provides the developer with the ability to take full control over their secure connections, providing much more than just a regular SSH component, but rather a full SSH 'toolkit'. Support for SSH1, SSH2, port forwarding and alternative authentication methods is included and all aspects of your secure connection are fully configurable.
