Raspberry Pi - Security and Deployment
If you forget to add the empty 'ssh' file to the boot partition before first boot, what will happen?
ASSH will be enabled automatically after first boot.
BSSH will be disabled, and you cannot connect remotely by default.
CThe Raspberry Pi will refuse to boot.
DThe Raspberry Pi will prompt to enable SSH on startup.
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Recall SSH enabling method

    SSH is disabled by default for security; the empty 'ssh' file enables it on first boot.
  2. Step 2: Consequence of missing 'ssh' file

    Without the file, SSH remains off, so remote login is blocked initially.
  3. Final Answer:

    SSH will be disabled, and you cannot connect remotely by default. -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Missing 'ssh' file disables SSH = B [OK]
Quick Trick: No 'ssh' file means no remote SSH access [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Assuming SSH enables automatically
  • Thinking Pi refuses to boot without SSH
  • Expecting a prompt to enable SSH
