It's a bit old but my go-to reminder for the once-every-5-years times I
need to look at ssh is
https://www.howtogeek.com/443156/the-best-ways-to-secure-your-ssh-server/

It steps through enough of the information to help understand what you're
doing and why.

If you're keen on keeping passwords you should probably also look at
fail2ban - https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-fail2ban/

I'm sure there are better links out there but I found those ones explain
enough as you go to understand what you're doing when you don't do it every
day.

Regards,

Jared
