Answer Description

Telnet is an insecure protocol because it transmits data, including credentials, in plaintext without encryption. Secure Shell (SSH) is recommended instead of Telnet for remote server management because SSH encrypts the connection to prevent eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks.
