Take the 2-minute tour ×  I have a server in our internal
network, and there are files/reports on that server that I need
to get to a box in our DMZ. They aren't served up directly from
the box in the DMZ; they are processed by the server and
displayed to the user through a portal application. So I was
going to use ssh and key-pairs to do it.  We have this setup
with other boxes, but I wanted to see if there were any (I guess
there are always some) security risks with allowing a connection
from an internal box to connect to a DMZ box using ssh. I can't
think of any easy way someone in the DMZ would be able to
exploit this rule (the firewall would only allow connections
from INTERNAL to DMZ, not the other way around) if ssh is setup
correctly on the DMZ box, but I don't do security as a career
and was wondering if there might be anything I'm missing.
Thoughts and comments are appreciated. Thanks...  share|improve
