Actually in OS-X you already have it.

Open the terminal and type the following:

man ssh <--- then hit return

you should get the following: (I cut it down to just the beginning)

NAME
      ssh - OpenSSH SSH client (remote login program)

SYNOPSIS
      ssh [-l login_name] hostname | user at hostname [command]

      ssh [-afgknqstvxACNPTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec]
          [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name] [-m 
mac_spec]
          [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L 
port:host:hostport] [-R
          port:host:hostport] [-D port] hostname | user at hostname [command]

DESCRIPTION
      ssh (SSH client) is a program for logging into a remote machine and 
for
      executing commands on a remote machine.  It is intended to replace 
rlogin
      and rsh, and provide secure encrypted communications between two
      untrusted hosts over an insecure network.  X11 connections and 
arbitrary
      TCP/IP ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.

      ssh connects and logs into the specified hostname.  The user must 
prove
      his/her identity to the remote machine using one of several methods
      depending on the protocol version used:



Is your friend really wanting a secure ftp client or a secure telnet 
client for OS-9? BTW scp is also built into OS-X
