    I kind of agree, but I also kind of disagree because if you are using the default port and default password, you’d be much more likely to be hacked with the default port rather than a non-standard port. Of course, you’d be even more secure with a non-default password (or key auth only). Plus, information leaking can definitely be used against you, so obscurity can actually help make things secure. You want to make yourself a less simple target than your neighbour in any way that you can.

    It also cuts down on log spam which is nice.
