        SecurityOptions

Simple object containing the security preferences of an ssh transport. These are tuples of acceptable ciphers, digests, key types, and key exchange algorithms, listed in order of preference.

Changing the contents and/or order of these fields affects the underlying Transport (but only if you change them before starting the session). If you try to add an algorithm that paramiko doesn't recognize, ValueError will be raised. If you try to assign something besides a tuple to one of the fields, TypeError will be raised.
