SSH is very, very secure, much more secure than SS's rudimentary access controls and IP blocking. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ssh It's been around since 1995 so it's been field-tested and battered every which way and aside from the security concerns outlined in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ssh#Security_cautions it's quite secure. I believe that yes, your SSH is open to the world - but that's the point. Without your password, they can't get in.
