SSH is the secure shell. It's what you're enabling when you turn on "Remote Login" in System Preferences > Sharing.

It's essentially a more secure version of Telnet, if you're familiar with that, and also provides scp/sftp (secure copy and secure FTP) services. You can use them from the command line, or from GUI applications like Fugu.
