I am thinking. If you boot into live cd, you don't have anything running so you don't 
really need to do anything. I have never used the live cd, so I am not sure if sshd is 
on there.. If so, you can look at /etc/sshd_config and there is a option in there to 
only allow certain hosts to connect..
I use xinetd for this so I don't remember exactly where.. if there is, just change 
that and load sshd, you should be fine security wise..
