A web-based ssh console to execute commands and manage multiple systems simultaneously. KeyBox allows you to share terminal commands and upload files to all your systems. Once the sessions have been opened you can select a single system or any combination to run your commands. Additional system administrators can be added and their terminal sessions and history can be audited. Also, KeyBox can manage and distribute public keys that have been setup and defined.
