Geeze People.... Yes, SSH has it's vulnerabilities... the problem is not
that they can't be patched/fixed, but rather keeping up with all the
possible different versions of SSH and the servers supporting SSH.  Plus,
where is there a reliable source of SSH debs,rpms,pkgs,msis,etc.  It can
easily be argued that no security is better than false security.

My Guess:  Given the company in question, and their involvement with Fed
contracts, the more likely case is that the company is abandoning external
SSH access in favor of a easily maintained VPN solution.
