Business model

Effort
A few weeks

System administrators struggle with testing and rolling out SSH configuration changes across large server environments. Create a tool that analyzes current configurations, tests compatibility with new versions, and generates migration plans. Sell to DevOps teams managing multiple servers. Start with basic compatibility checks, then add automated remediation. Risk is false positives causing connectivity issues.
