Hello there,

It'd been a long time since I used a linux box, but I wondered how much secured is the root account, and all the device in general.

I've read that to gain root access, you use a little package. Does this mean that the account is not password protected?
Same question for the user "user" which we are logged as?

Once the ssh is installed, if the root/user account is unsecured, everyone may access our device, right?
