As long as your firewall or your router does not forward port 22 through
you should be OK.
And if you do want to expose an SSH port to the outside world so you can
log in from outside your LAN, I recommend you configure a port other
than 22, which everybody knows is the default port for SSH. You should
also use a strong password.

In reading up on ssh, some have mentioned that leaving ssh enabled on the
pi, and presumably on any computer, can pose a security risk.
Any opinions on how seriously such should be taken?
Can someone outside one's local network get into a computer on that local
network with just a password?
Thanks
