To disable SSH on a Linux system, you can follow these steps:

1. **Stop the SSH Service:**
   
   First, you need to stop the SSH service (OpenSSH) from running. Open a terminal and execute the following command:


   $ sudo systemctl stop ssh


   This command will stop the SSH service immediately.

2. **Disable SSH Service Autostart:**
   
   To prevent the SSH service from starting automatically at system boot, you can disable its systemd service:

   $ sudo systemctl disable ssh


   This will prevent the SSH service from starting on system boot.
