Securely connecting to Azure Arc-enabled servers using RDP over SSH

With Azure Arc-enabled servers, many of us are already familiar with the ability to establish SSH connections to these machines.

Now, I can imagine security professionals having a moment of concern—yes, you read that right: SSH access to Windows machines onboarded with Azure Arc is possible.
