SSH is built into all modern UNIX based systems. Putty is for Windows based 
systems (and Unix, but why you would use putty when it already has SSH I do not 
know). I thought about deploying Putty on all my windows devices a long time 
ago, but when I asked myself the question, "What can I do with it?" the answer 
came back, not much. Virtually all of the queries that can return anything can 
be done with WMI. PSExec, part of PSTools allows you to get a remote command 
shell into any Windows device with the firewall set up to accept connections 
over the right ports and valid local administrator credentials on the host 
device. Once you have that you can do almost anything.
